A question that often comes to the Inclusive Research team from researchers is “what are the top three things I can do to embed EDI in my work?” In response, a virtual webinar on “Inclusive Research Tools: Identifying and Addressing Barriers” has been rescheduled for August 14, 2023 from 11:00 am – 12:00 pm. This session will help researchers identify ways to understand potential barriers that may exist in their research program, project and/or teams and will provide ideas for concrete actions to meaningfully address them.

A recording of the same session that took place in July can be found in the Inclusive Research Resource Hub, a curated hub of training materials, guidelines and resources related to equity, diversity, inclusion and Indigenous research excellence available to everyone with a WATIAM password.
The University of Waterloo is committed to supporting faculty members to build their competencies related to embedding equity, diversity, and inclusive practices in their teams and research. The Inclusive Research team is located in the Office of the Vice-President, Research and International and works to provide ongoing development and capacity building for researchers, as outlined in the Inclusive Research Implementation Strategy.
