TUS Race Equality Action Plan
The TUS Race Equality Action Plan 2025-2027 was approved in early 2025. This Action Plan was informed by Race Equality Forums which were open to staff and students during Academic Year 2023/2024. These forums were shaped by the Higher Education Authority Anti Racism Principles, which TUS signed in 2023. This Race Equality Action plan has been endorsed by the Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Steering Committee and TUS Governing Body. The plan provides a framework for fostering an inclusive culture, where racial equality is promoted to ensure a safe and empowering environment for staff and students.

Technological University of the Shannon (TUS) signed the Higher Education Authority (HEA)’s Race Equality Anti-Racism Principles for Higher Education Institutions in late 2023. These principles were developed from stakeholder consultation, from the findings of the Higher Education Authority National Race Equality survey and subsequent first National Race Equality Report, which was published in October 2021. In signing these principles, TUS made a public commitment to address incidences of racism and support race equality in structures and processes.
