Applying Anti-Racism in Research
Event details
This talk will discuss the development of the Anti-Racist research Toolkit and explore how we can apply anti-racist principles in our research. Anti-racist research relies upon a commitment to actively dismantle systemic and individual forms of racism, and promises to empower communities through ethically driven research that centres social justice. The purpose of the toolkit is to support researchers and practitioners from different disciplinary backgrounds to generate projects that can create meaningful change in society. We will reflect upon how we can best design, create and disseminate research that serves public interest and contributes to positive transformation.
