About us

The Social Justice and Inclusion Thematic Hub continues the long tradition and commitment of the School to research and knowledge exchange aimed at understanding and addressing inequality and injustice.

Our research encompasses the work of many colleagues engaged in a diverse range of research topics underpinned by the core values of equity, equal opportunity, respect for human dignity and diversity. It is multidisciplinary, uses a range of theoretical and methodological approaches, and informs policy and practice across different contexts.  

The Social Justice and Inclusion Thematic Hub aims to create a strong research community where we share knowledge, identify new opportunities for collaboration, help members develop research capacity and provide peer support for both research staff and PGR students to maximise synergy in research. 

The hub actively engages with other thematic hubs, schools and centres across the University. Members of our Thematic Hub engage in wider cross-university and international networks, and teaching programmes that cover policy, curricular and pedagogical approaches that promote social justice and inclusion.
