Inclusion as a Norm at King's - Leadership, Understanding the issues, Developing individuals, Enacting change (INKLUDE) is a Wellcome funded 24 month project which seeks to implement and evaluate innovative approaches to significantly improve the inclusion of individuals from under-represented groups in research careers, initially focusing on women and those from minoritized ethnic groups.

WP2: Leaders of research at all levels will be given the skills to create a positive and supportive research culture through optimising inclusive practices.

WP4: Enact change through a range of institutional commitments including improved data capture on the characteristics of staff, a five year strategy to continue work towards our goal, and the allocation of academic and professional services staff in support of the mission.

WP5: Co-production of the resources, interventions, evaluation and dissemination of the programme.
