Maynooth University is committed to being a University community that promotes and advances equality, respects and values diversity, and develops a collegiate environment of excellence with equality, in which the human rights, responsibilities and diversity of all students and staff are recognised and respected.

The University values the enrichment that comes from a diverse community of students and staff and seeks to promote equality and prevent discrimination in the access, experience, progression and achievement of all students and staff through developing and implementing clear policies, procedures and practices providing effective support to help realise equality in the student experience and in employment.

The Office of the Vice President for Equality & Diversity works very closely with the Maynooth Students’ Union (MSU) and colleagues across the University, to ensure that the principles of equality, diversity, inclusion and interculturalism (EDI) are embedded in all aspects of the University’s strategy, policy, processes, systems and functions, and to ensure that Maynooth University is a place where difference is celebrated and all members of its community have a sense of belonging.
