This Emerging Researchers' Conference (ERC) interactive session will encourage participants to reflect on their diversity, positionality, and on their role as learners, educators and/ or researchers. In line with the ECER 2023 conference theme, this session will bring together three researchers with diverse areas of interest and expertise.
Prof. Bonnie Slade’s input will reflect her interdisciplinary research which draws on adult education, migration studies, women’s studies and arts-informed research traditions. Dr. George Head will focus on ethical considerations and dilemmas that may arise during the research process, particularly when researching ‘difficult’ subjects. Dr. Ines Alves will engage with the concepts of equity, diversity, and inclusion and how these can be challenging when diversity poses challenges to our educational and research systems, and when homogeneity can often still be considered the ‘desirable norm’.
In this interactive session we aim to create a friendly environment that values diversity and which invites participants to share their thoughts and questions with the speakers and other researchers.
