Gerard Jones This week we meet Gerard Jones, LGBTQ+ Equality Implementation Group (LEIG) Manager at UCL, who has been working on the first draft of UCL's LGBTQ+ equality action plan. Here, he chats to us about his latest projects and love for Scotland. What is your role and what does it involve?. I'm the LGBTQ+ Equality Implementation Group (LEIG) Manager in UCL's central Equality, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) team. The main purpose of my role is to create and implement an action plan that will improve the experience of LGBTQ+ staff and students at UCL. Since starting the role in November 2022, I've been reviewing existing data, planning initiatives that build upon existing EDI frameworks, and engaging with key stakeholders across the university to create the first draft of the LGBTQ+ equality action plan. It's been a really interesting and rewarding experience so far; I've enjoyed working with LEIG, the LGBTQ+ Equality Steering Group (LESG), and of course, the central EDI team.
