The workshop will be interactive and include a speaker presentation, guided individual reflection and (optional) small group discussion.
By the end of the session, participants will be able to:
- Describe why funding programs now regularly evaluate EDI practices in research projects and teams and how this benefits the research community and public.
- Identify common pitfalls in the EDI sections of grant applications and adopt听strategies to avoid these pitfalls and improve their applications.
- Reflect on the EDI practices they are currently implementing in their projects and teams听and identify impactful practices that they could begin implementing in the near future.
