We’re committed to our local community, delivering training for secondary school students in climate, chemistry and astrology.
To help researchers excel and reach their full potential we offer a full range of personal, professional and career development opportunities via the Researcher Development Programme.
We’re tackling hunger through a range of community initiatives spanning on and off-campus at LJMU. We’re driving high-tech and sustainable food production through our work with Farm Urban and giving back to the community through contributions to the Fans Supporting Foodbanks initiative. In Southeast Asia, we are working to develop nature-based solutions to promote food security hungry.
LJMU strives to enable equality for all people regardless of income, sex, age, disability, sexual orientation, race, class, ethnicity, religion. Our international and collaborative research aims to give a voice to minoritised and vulnerable communities and end poor treatment of human beings. Our research extends to improving the treatment of women in African prisons and identifying disaster victims through our Face Lab.
Our arrangements for environmental management, sustainability and climate change fit within the university’s governance structures – which have staff and student representation.
