Fashion and the Arts Creating Equity (FACE) members return to UAL to provide one to one discussions and advice to teaching staff on developing inclusive practice and course content.
About FACE
FACE (Fashion and the Arts Creating Equity) is co-founded by Sharon Lloyd, Senior Academic, Fashion Industry EDI Lead, Champion, and Consultant; Pascal Matthias, Associate Vice President for EDI and Social at The University of Southampton and Awareness and Accountability EDI Consultant, Senior Teaching Fellow at the Winchester School of Art and Andrew Ibi, Course Leader Liverpool John Moores University.
FACE’s work is driven firstly by the belief that wherever anti-Blackness challenge and protocol is centred then all racially minoritised staff and students benefit. Secondly that the intersection of fashion, the arts and academia is a powerful force for positive change.
About the organizing team
UAL’s Black History Month collective consists of Jason Forrest, Omolara Obanishola, Dionne Elizabeth, Huguette Tchiapi, Mel Makongo and Sophie Kabangu. They have been supported by the Social Purpose Innovation Fund and the EDI team, part of the People and Culture Department.
