Report racism

Report racism

Downing College is a place of welcome, of diversity, and of inclusion.

The fellows, staff, and students of Downing College believe that all forms of discrimination and racism are unacceptable. Not only do they divide communities and undermine social cohesion, they prevent individuals from achieving their full potential, to all of our detriments. We acknowledge that the responsibility lies with each of us to robustly challenge discrimination and to assert the positive value of diversity. We stand together with any of our fellows, staff, and students who are adversely affected by discrimination.

Welcome to Downing. Everyone.

Arising from the work of the College’s Diversity Committee, a new anti-racism campaign launches at Downing for the new academic year, with examples of micro-aggressions experienced by our EMC students as well as details of the College’s reporting structure.

We encourage the whole Downing community to: Acknowledge it; Understand it; Report it.

Look out for our posters, and pick up a postcard from around the Domus. If you have questions, please email comms@dow.cam.ac.uk
