A message from Donna Dalrymple, UCL's Chief People Officer. The intersex inclusive pride flag. The flag shows horizontal rainbow stripes on the right hand side, and on the left hand side a chevron with black, brown, pale blue, pale pink, white and yellow stripes with a purple ring motif to the far left Dear colleagues,  We are delighted to share the institutional LGBTQ+ action plan with our university community. This strategy outlines the priorities for the next 18-24 months to ensure an inclusive, uplifting environment for UCL's LGBTQ+ staff, students, alumni, and visitors. Following the decision to disaffiliate from Stonewall in December 2021, UCL's senior leadership commissioned the LGBTQ+ Equality Implementation Group (LEIG) to develop an action plan tackling inequality, marginalisation and discrimination. Since beginning their work in November 2022, LEIG have collated statistical data, conducted listening exercises, sought input from colleagues responsible for implementing actions, and engaged across the university to understand the experiences of LGBTQ+ staff and students. This has resulted in a thoughtful, robust action plan that has been endorsed by UCL's EDI Committee.
