Abstract

In light of the recent suspension of the Equality, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI) advisory group by UK Research and Innovation, this article invites a reflection from my observations as a member of an EDI committee of negative attitudes towards Advance Higher Education charters and EDI committees at higher education institutes. Using race equity as an example, I hope to suggest why these negative attitudes from institute members are by design inevitable, if the Advance Higher Education framework is the only angle in which EDI progress is understood.
