We are committed to restructuring our systems at CHEAD to ensure that at all levels within the organisation, we are working towards equity, diversity, and inclusion.
This means that we particularly want to ensure the organisation’s Board is reflective of our mission to dismantle institutional models and hierarchies that embed inequality and discrimination within art and design.
