A brief description of the diversity and equity committee, office and/or officer, including purview and activities:
In February 2023, BBU reinstated the Equal Opportunities Committee with the primary objective of providing a platform for faculty and staff dedicated to equal opportunities. This initiative aims to foster the expression of views, development of ideas, and submission of proposals within a formal framework. While open to all university employees, the Equal Opportunities Committee actively encourages colleagues from under-represented groups, who wish to contribute as experienced experts, to participate.
The overarching role of the Equal Opportunities Committee is to ensure that all university citizens can engage in work and study at the University, free from any form of discrimination or other manifestations that compromise their human dignity. The committee is also committed to exploring measures that enhance the conditions for citizens from disadvantaged backgrounds.
Currently, the Equal Opportunities Committee operates through five specialized working groups:
Working Group on the Abuse-Free University Concept
Working Group on Equal Opportunities for University Students with Children
Working Group on Equal Opportunities for Students
Working Group on Equal Opportunities for Disabled University Citizens
Working Group on Equal Opportunities for Workers Over Fifty

At BBU, we cultivate an inclusive environment that embraces and celebrates the diversity inherent in individuals. Recognizing and effectively managing these differences contribute significantly to both our individual and organizational success.
The act of embracing diversity enriches our collective experience, fostering a variety of perspectives that ultimately contribute to building a more promising future. We are committed to treating everyone equitably, devoid of negative prejudices, and to creating societal, academic, workplace, and general life conditions that not only endorse but also appreciate diversity while upholding human dignity.
Through our comprehensive Equality Action Plan and Gender Equality Plan, we actively work towards ensuring that under-represented or disadvantaged groups and individuals can fully and effectively participate on an equal footing with others. Our overarching goal is to instill an organizational culture where mutual respect thrives, allowing everyone to express themselves authentically.
