International Staff Network
15 Jul 2024
Creating a community for our international colleagues
The Directorate of Equality, Diversity and Inclusion are relaunching the International Staff Network.
The network is for international members of staff to have a space to meet other people, discuss issues, share experiences and offer peers a sense of community and belonging.
An important feature of the network will be to provide support for new international members of staff arriving in Manchester from overseas. This will be done through the ‘buddy’ scheme. The EDI Team will match a new starter with another member of staff who is also from their country of origin or speaks a mutual language. Matched colleagues would then be on hand to offer advice to new starters and answer any questions they might have in relation to settling into life in the UK.
- If you are interested in joining the network, please complete the International Staff Network application form.
- If you have any questions, please email the EDI Team at EqualityandDiversity@manchester.ac.uk.
