Keele Institute for Social Inclusion aims to draw together a vibrant community of partners across sectors to tackle the issues of inequality on a local, national and global scale.  The Institute will promote and support a wide range of interdisciplinary research, co-created with external partners, that seeks to identify, explain and overcome social, economic, political and cultural obstacles to egalitarian respect and social inclusion.  

In order to build up this community, you are invited to join the Institute by completing this form.  Membership of the Institute is open to all, whether you are based at Keele University, another university, or are bringing expertise from outside the university sector.

Becoming a member of the Institute will bring with it a number of benefits, including: opportunities to develop cross-disciplinary research networks with colleagues working on the big social challenges of the day; the opportunity to work with Keele academics to secure funding for research projects; and access to a diverse set of events, workshops, exhibitions, performances, book launches and reports: in short, to be part of a vibrant intellectual community which aims to promote social mobility and tackle exclusion wherever it is found.
