Leeds Gender Framework

Please note, the LGF is currently being reviewed and will be re-launched later this academic year.

The Leeds Gender Framework is the University’s strategic approach to gender equality, also enabling the delivery of the University’s Equality and Inclusion Framework.

The Gender Equality Mission is to challenge and change the current culture and systems of the University to ensure we make gender equality a reality, to create an environment which allows everyone to feel supported and empowered to achieve their full potential.  Through this vision we envisage more inclusive, flexible and fair working practices.

The Leeds Gender Framework Steering Group provides strategic oversight for the delivery of the Gender Equality Mission. Its work is supported by several developmental and support groups for women, they include:

• Women@Leeds Network
• Women of Achievement Awards
• Aurora
• Leeds Female Leaders Network
• Women in Leadership Roles Forum
