DEI & Analytics

Western traditions of scholarship were formed by white, male, affluent researchers to meet the needs of affluent white men. Without careful thought and planning, harmful assumptions can persist in our scholarship. As you embark on your research, interrogate:

  • who is being studied (or not studied)
  • through which viewpoint or lens
  • assumptions made about people, collective good or harm
