Overview

Gender, ethnicity and ability attainment gaps exist in career progression in medical and academic workforces. Transgender and non-binary people and  LGBT staff members often feel more marginalised, less engaged  and experience more bullying than other staff (in staff surveys). These affect the likelihood of achieving promotion, leadership positions, salary rises and successful funding applications.

Understanding perceptions and perspectives of people from minoritised groups.  Working in partnerships with leadership organisations such as the Medical Women’s Federation, we seek to understand their perspectives of people from minoritised groups to tailor interventions to reduce inequities.
