Yasmin has been worked in the sector for a number of years,
mainstreaming race equality in Higher Education through the NUS Black
Students committee and is a long-time campaigner in the area of equality
and diversity.
A Policy Adviser for the areas of race and religion, Saheema Rawat, has
also been appointed. Saheema has extensive experience of embedding race
issues through working in the Lord Chancellor's department and
consultancy. She joins us from Focus Consultancy on 5 April.
Erica Halvorsen, Policy Adviser, and Ruth Hunt Policy Officer continue
the policy work.
A full briefing on the new staffing structure at the ECU, will be sent
to you as soon as the whole policy team is in place.
Yours
The ECU team
