Last Updated: 2026-06-01 11:33:18
Abstract
This workshop focuses on unpacking the prejudices and privileges we hold as individuals, and instances of discrimination that can arise while working in diverse teams. We’ll explore our own identities and learn about various forms of conflict resolution. The workshop is particularly suited to those who conduct research across the Global South and North, and will draw from participant experiences.
Objective
Learning goals: - Learn to recognise our prejudices and privileges, and how to take responsibility for them - Learn strategies to identify discrimination and break down attitudes shaped by prejudice - Become empowered to speak on prejudice, privilege and discrimination
Content
