The InterHEd Project – on equality and an inclusive academic environment

09 09 2026

We invite you to explore the materials developed as part of the InterHEd project, which focuses on intersectionality in higher education.

InterHEd is a project implemented between 2023 and 2026 under the Erasmus+ programme. Its goal is to foster a more inclusive academic environment by integrating an intersectional perspective into education. This approach helps reveal how various factors—such as gender, socioeconomic status, background, and disability—interact to shape the experiences of students and staff within the university.

The project has produced a toolkit, examples of teaching practices, and recommendations for addressing inequalities in higher education. The materials cover topics such as course design, assessment methods, and the accessibility of the learning environment.

Materials available for download:

• The InterHEd toolkit for introducing intersecionality in higher education teaching
• Intersectionality in higher education – promising practices in teaching 

We encourage you to use these materials in your teaching, research, and efforts to promote equal treatment.
