Diversity and Inclusion resources

Welcome to our diversity and inclusion resources page. With students in 180 countries worldwide, diversity and inclusion are at the heart of the University of London’s mission to transform lives through education. 

The Library team has put together a carefully curated set of resources that celebrate diversity and inclusion, which we hope will interest, inspire and inform. 

If you have any suggestions for resources to be included on this page, we would welcome you sharing them with us.
