The Code of Conduct and Values (the Code) was created in collaboration with students and staff across the University, with a focus on providing clear parameters for respectful conduct. The Code is our overarching policy document that sets out our values and addresses our legislative obligations. We each have the power to make a positive difference in the way that we choose to respond when unforeseen circumstances arise. The new Code can support us to navigate complex circumstances.

Principles:

1: We are an inclusive UNSW community where everyone belongs

2: We act respectfully

3: We act with integrity, honesty and trust

4: We act responsibly and professionally

5: We act lawfully and comply with this Code, policy documents and regulation
