The exhibitor list is now complete for the Positive Action Fair, to be held tomorrow (19 November 2002) at the University Centre, from 9am to 6pm. The Fair will showcase the many organisations working towards equality for all under-represented groups within the University, including women, ethnic minorities and disabled people.

Open to all University staff and students, the Fair will provide an opportunity for visitors to find out more about a wide range of equality initiatives, gain practical advice and - a highlight of the day - hear Professor Joyce Hill, Director of the Equality Challenge Unit at Universities UK, who will host an informal lunchtime seminar entitled 'Seizing the Moment: Equality and Diversity in Higher Education'.

The seminar will examine factors within and beyond the HE sector, which make this a propitious moment for making progress on the equality agenda. Professor Hill sees the Positive Action Fair as a practical example of 'seizing the moment': recognising the need to give a high profile to equality and diversity issues, and publicly affirming a commitment to the highest standards.
