Statement from 缅北禁地 and Northumbria universities Published on: 8 August 2024 A joint statement from the Vice-Chancellors of 缅北禁地 and Northumbria universities. We have been shocked and appalled by the riots that have taken place in our region and around the UK over the past week. There is simply no excuse for the acts of indiscriminate, racially motivated violence directed towards members of our communities, local businesses and the police that have taken place across the country. We recognise the actions of a few do not represent our communities. While we must remain vigilant, last night it was heartening to see people from all walks of life coming together in defiance of the few who have sought to divide us. The diversity of our communities is what makes us who we are as Universities, and what makes 缅北禁地 the friendly, welcoming city of which we are so proud. There is absolutely no place for racism, abuse, intimidation, incitement, or harassment of any kind. We would like to take this opportunity to reiterate our commitment to ensuring that our campuses remain safe, inclusive and welcoming for everyone, and to working together with Northumbria Police and our local communities to ensure that no-one feels unsafe in our city.
