Activities
The Centre offers a comprehensive programme of support and opportunity for postgraduate researchers of colour across the University.
Take a look at our activities below and see how you can get involved.
Knowledge Exchange
These projects will enable PGRs to learn from people who have a wealth of experience in racial justice work. Partners will also benefit by engaging with the distinct expertise, experiences and skillsets possessed by PGRs.

Centre Chats
Centre Chats are not only an opportunity to share and reflect on everyday experiences, they are also a way of meeting other PGRs of colour beyond your department or field. They take place in a relaxed environment over lunch (provided by us!)

Centre Archive
The Archive is a space for all those involved in the Centre to creatively document and share their experiences of identity, culture, heritage, higher education and/or activism. It is an opportunity for self-reflection, forming new narratives and cultivating solidarity amongst like-valued people.
