The Office for Inclusivity and Change works to develop and foster an environment at UCT where everyone feels included and change is respected, encouraged and celebrated.

The OIC is the main driver of the university’s responses to transformation, sexual and gender-based violence, disability and cultural change.

It provides a survivor support-centred approach in incidences of sexual assault, rape and violence. It also coordinates the university's diversity programme and provides UCT’s disability service.

The OIC is responsible for mapping the university’s response to transformation initiatives and inclusion. It steers policy implementation and provides curriculum and research relating to decoloniality, inclusion and marginalisation in teaching and learning.
