NERC's ambitions for positive environmental impact, and for transformations in research culture are deep-rooted in the University of Bristol (UoB). UoB will shortly launch a refreshed strategy and vision, which will include strengthening the reach of our Cabot Institute for the Environment to work in collaboration across disciplines with our other flag-ship Institutes within our research ecosystem, focusing on further cross-cutting challenges such as Jean Golding Institute (JGI; big data) and Elizabeth Blackwell (EBI; health). Of particular note, UoB are developing a strong link between Cabot and EBI to expand our portfolio of Climate and Health research, which also links in to the research strands of the MET Office Academic Partnership, of which UoB is one of the leading partners and has been successful in winning and strengthening in the recent tendering process. This is a particular area of strategic growth for the university and one which would benefit greatly from additional funding to support short projects at traditional discipline boundaries. UoB has a thriving network of Public and Policy Engagement, which regularly work in collaboration with end users (e.g. businesses, policymakers, non-governmental organisations) to understand how their needs could be addressed through interdisciplinary, cross-disciplinary and discipline hopping approaches in the environmental and climate agenda. Building an inclusive research environment is central to the success of our operations: we want to create a culture where different perspectives co-exist to accelerate innovation and spark creativity, where people can be themselves and do their best work. We actively promote research career opportunities to the broadest range of people, ensuring decisions are fair, transparent and evidence-based, mitigating any potential for bias. All staff are required to undertake Inclusion Essentials training to raise awareness of EDI and active bystander techniques to ensure that we are all equipped to contribute towards a culture of respect, inclusion and belonging. Project teams can access a range of EDI development opportunities, as well as mentoring and resources to support their own career development via Bristol's researcher development programmes. Wellbeing remains a priority for us and we ensure that our working environment is responsive and flexible to the different needs of our people.

在布里斯托尔大学（UOB），NERC对积极的环境影响和研究文化转变的野心是根深蒂固的。 UOB将很快启动刷新的策略和愿景，其中包括加强我们的Cabot环境研究所的覆盖范围，以与我们的研究生态系统中的其他旗帜船研究机构合作，重点介绍Jean Golding Institute（JGI; Big Data）和Elizabeth Blackwell（Ebibeth Blackwell（Ebi; ebi; Health）等进一步的交叉挑战挑战。尤其值得注意的是，UOB正在与Cabot和Ebi之间建立牢固的联系，以扩大我们的气候和健康研究组合，这也与Met Office Academic Partnership的研究链有关，UOB是UOB是领先的合作伙伴之一，并且在最近的招标过程中已经成功地赢得了胜利和增强。这是大学战略增长的一个特定领域，它将从额外的资金中受益于支持传统学科边界的短期项目。 UOB拥有一个蓬勃发展的公共和政策参与网络，该网络定期与最终用户（例如企业，政策制定者，非政府组织）合作，以了解如何通过环境和气候议程中的跨学科，跨学科和纪律跳跃方法来满足其需求。建立包容性的研究环境是我们运营成功的核心：我们想创建一种文化，不同的观点共存以加速创新和激发创造力，在这种文化中，人们可以成为自己并尽力而为。我们积极地为最广泛的人促进研究职业机会，确保决策是公平，透明且基于证据的，从而减轻了任何偏见的潜力。所有员工都必须进行包容性必需品培训，以提高对EDI和活跃的旁观者技术的认识，以确保我们都有能力为尊重，包容和归属的文化做出贡献。项目团队可以通过Bristol的研究人员开发计划获得一系列EDI开发机会，以及指导和资源，以支持其职业发展。福利仍然是我们的优先事项，我们确保我们的工作环境对我们人民的不同需求有响应和灵活。
