BAMEish
The BAMEish Network is currently on a hiatus. If you would like to discuss the role of Co-Lead, please contact Sandrine Flower.
The BAMEish network aims to create a space for Black, Asian
and Minority Ethnic Staff to feel visible, valued and culturally recognised. A
community where members and allies come together to transform how we define
inclusion. The network is a creative, social, and political space to reclaim
agency within the workplace.
If you want to be involved in the Network, contact bameish@napier.ac.uk
