A workshop day on Openness, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion in Academia
Check out this workshop that brings together knowledge and skills for a more inclusive, diverse, equitable and therefore more open academia, co-organised by OSC-NL.
The values described in the UNESCO Recommendations on Open Science (OS) aim to ensure ‘equitable, fair and reciprocal access to science for all…’ and ‘embracing diversity of knowledge, practices, workflows, languages and research topics and outputs’.
The research community is far from embodying these values in everyday research practices and work environments. Therefore, the goal of this workshop is capacity building by equipping participants with know-how to make their research, research support, or events (such as presentations, training, engagement activities) more open, participatory, and inclusive in the broadest sense of the word.
This workshop offers three different interactive sessions:
1) Leveling the playing field for careers in science & measuring marginalization (Afreen Khalid, Ze Freeman)
2) Equity, Diversity, & Inclusion in the research lifecycle (Thomas Gülzow, Hanne Zimmermann)
3) Inclusive events, work environments and building ally skills (Esther Plomp, Melanie Imming)
