Inequality fuels modern crises, from political polarisation and poverty to prejudice and violence. And when privilege and power is concentrated amongst a few, effective solutions fall short. At King’s, we believe in a world where everyone can achieve a great education. Where people have agency, influence and the chance to fulfil their potential. And where social and economic mobility is no longer a challenge to overcome.

Advancing equality and social mobility is a key focus among King's five impact priorities. We have led targeted initiatives like Parent Power, established pioneering community partnerships with charities including Citizens UK, and delivered evidence-based research into the root causes of inequality. King’s champions inclusivity across all facets of the University, from recruitment and education to outreach and community engagement. We aim to be a catalyst for societal change.
