The Diversity Committee supports the University in all matters relating to diversity and participation, including anti-discrimination issues. Its responsibilities include:
- Organising and implementing (with support from the Vice-President for Internationalisation and Diversity) diversity audits and other diversity-related monitoring processes as well as networking with other diversity committees nationwide vis-à-vis diversity management and campus diversity
- Organising anti-discrimination mechanisms (anti-discrimination guidelines) in close cooperation with the Anti-Discrimination Officer
- Advising responsible bodies on topics such as shifts in social diversity and possible effects for HSRW (in close cooperation with the Equal Opportunities office)
- Continuously fine tuning all diversity-sensitive areas which affect operations at HSRW.
The Diversity Committee is supported in its duties by the Personal Representative to the Vice-President for Internationalisation and Diversity. The Vice-President for Internationalisation and Diversity, the Inclusion Officer and the Representative for Students with Disabilities and Chronic Illnesses usually participate in meetings as advisors without voting power.
