    QMU Podcast - History of TV Food & Cooking Programmes
    Apr 25 2024
    Queen Margaret University (QMU) has a proud history relating to food, cooking and nutrition dating back to its inception in 1875.

    This podcast recording is part of a range of initiatives across Queen Margaret University to highlight and communicate the work being undertaken by Paul in his role as DEI & Anti-Racism Adviser to the Principal and the activities of QMU's Equality and Diversity Committee and the Race Equality Steering Group.

    In May this year, QMU launched its first Diversity, Inclusion and Wellbeing (DIW) Calendar, reflecting each month on key social justice themes. The calendar highlights key dates, related events and activities taking place both at QMU and in the wider community, as well as articles and reflections contributed by staff and students.

    The calendar is designed to act as the focus of communications, events and initiatives associated with its themes, which for this month of August is all about Fostering an Inclusive Environment.
