Beyond Oxford
There is a vast array of very useful Equality and Diversity resources available via the CUCD. These include links to EDI Organisations in Classics (such as Sportula, an organisation offering microgrants for Classics Students), other useful EDI resources and initiatives (such as Leading Routes, a pioneering initiative that aims to prepare the next generation of Black academics), and teaching resources (such as a Cornucopia of Classics Resources, a searchable website that highlights innovative work by female scholars and scholars of colour):
