Episode 2. Inclusive path to professorship with Prof. Sally Everett

In this episode, Professor Sally Everett turns from co-host to guest as we talk honestly about an inclusive path to professorship and championing equity, diversity, and inclusion. Sally shares the personal and professional journey that led her into EDI work, from her own lived experiences to reinvigorating women’s networks, responding to disabled students’ allowance cuts, and getting involved with race equity initiatives and advisory boards.Together, we unpack the shift from “equality” to “equity”, the idea of becoming more “JEDI” (justice, equity, diversity and inclusion), and how structural inequalities and awarding gaps show up in higher education. The conversation is grounded in very practical examples, from inclusive documents and case studies to food choices at events, and offers encouraging advice for colleagues who want to be more inclusive but worry about “getting it wrong”.Disclaimer:The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the hosts and guests and do not represent the positions of their universities or employers.
