A definition of Islamophobia has now been formally adopted by the Student Union of The University of Essex. The policy change was headed by the SU Asian Student Network in conjunction with the Islamic Society MEND assisted in developing the policy recommendations and is thrilled to see the SU commit to formally promoting Islamophobia Awareness Month in November of every year, as well as to provide staff training on Islamophobia. The SU is also now committed to assisting the University to recognise Islamic religious events such as Ramadan and co-ordinate events such as exams around those dates and times.
