Message from the Director of Diversity, Equity, Inclusion & Belonging

At Aga Khan University, we believe that diversity enriches our community, equity empowers us to grow, inclusion builds connections, and belonging inspires us to thrive together. These ideals are rooted in our shared values of Ethics & Integrity, Care, Compassion & Respect, Continuous Learning, Excellence & Innovation, and Empowerment & Accountability.

The Office of DEI&B is committed to advancing these principles by fostering a culture where every voice is heard, every identity is valued, and every person has the opportunity to contribute their best. Through meaningful initiatives, collaborative partnerships, and purposeful action, we aim to create an environment that celebrates differences and ensures equitable access to opportunities for all.​

Together, let us uphold these values and continue to build a more inclusive and compassionate future for our AKU community and beyond.
