In today’s diverse and interconnected world, the protection and promotion of human rights are paramount. Universities play a crucial role in fostering environments where all individuals are treated with dignity and respect, regardless of their background, identity, or beliefs. By upholding principles of equality, diversity, and inclusion (EDI), universities not only cultivate a culture of tolerance and understanding but also contribute to the advancement of knowledge and innovation. Embracing EDI values ensures that every member of the university community can thrive and contribute to a vibrant intellectual and social fabric. As pillars of learning and enlightenment, universities have a responsibility to champion human rights, advocate for social justice, and serve as beacons of inclusivity in society.
CTU is a proud leader in the protection of human rights, as enshrined in our code of ethics which defines the rights and equality of all people, regardless of race, gender, religion, sexual orientation, age, or disability:
