Event and initiative grants of up to $1000 are available to UNSW students and staff.
The annual UNSW Diversity Festival brings students and staff together to foster a sense of belonging within our community. The festival is a celebration of the diversity of our community and aims to enrich identity and ignite important conversations about how we can foster a more inclusive society, where everyone can participate.
The fifth edition of Diversity Festival will be held throughout the week of 18-22 September 2023.
The Division of Equity Diversity & Inclusion (EDI) is again inviting UNSW students and staff to contribute the event program. Grants of up to $1000 are available for events and activities that address topics including, but not limited to:
- Age diversity
