Reclaiming Narratives: 100 Black Female Professors NOW

Out of more than 23,000 professors at UK universities, only 61 are Black women.

The 100 Black Women Professors NOW programme aims to address this imbalance, by propelling equity of opportunity for Black women academics, researchers and PhD students in UK higher education institutions. The University of Exeter has signed up to this 12-month accelerator and change developed and delivered by the Women's Higher Education Network (WHEN).
