SUMMARY:Black Women in Health & Social Care
DESCRIPTION:Location: Online \nEvent Information: What does it really mean to work in the health and social care industry for Black women? Despite a growing awareness for diversity and inclusivity in workplaces\, research consistently shows that Black women in health and social care regularly face intersectional discrimination due to their race and sex. We’ve invited a panel of Black women from health and social care sectors to discuss their experiences in the industry for this Black History Month’s focus on ‘Celebrating our sisters’. We will discuss what lessons they have learnt during their careers to inform Black girls and women with hopes of entering health and social care on the potential barriers they could face. More broadly\, this event aims to provide insight for any individual that is currently working (or aspires to work) in health and social care sectors on how they could foster a more diverse and inclusive workplace that serves the wider community. \n\nThis event is suitable for: Year 12 and Year 13. \nHow to book a place:  Please book by using this link. For any queries\, please contact subjectoutreach@exeter.ac.uk \n\nRecording your attendance on the RO student hub: Please email University of Exeter at realisingopportunities@exeter.ac.uk after the event to confirm your attendance.

SUMMARY:Can Transparency in Government Stop Corruption? (Policy & Practice seminar Series)
DESCRIPTION:Location: UCL Bloomsbury campus: Bentham House\, London\, WC1E 0EG \nEvent Information: Corruption is a major societal challenge in governments around the world\, undermining economic growth\, trust in government and the delivery of basic services to citizens\, from stolen medicines in clinics to crumbling roads. According to Transparency International’s 2022 Corruption Perceptions Index\, corruption perceptions are not improving. On the contrary\, most countries are failing to stop corruption: 155 countries have made no significant progress against corruption or have declined since 2012. The UK is no exception\, with scandals surrounding government procurement contracts during the COVID-19 pandemic and alleged abuses of the honours and peerages system. What can be done to tackle corruption in government? And what role\, in particular\, can transparency play? In this event\, leading scholars and practitioners in corruption and transparency will diagnose the challenges and propose fresh ideas for enhancing integrity in government and ending corruption. \n\nThis event is suitable for: Year 13. \nHow to book a place: To book a place\, please click here. \nRO Travel Scheme: If you would like to access the RO Travel Scheme for support with your travel costs to attend this event\, please contact Ms Vathani Mariampillai at UCL via email: srs.realisingopportunities@ucl.ac.uk.
