Promoting DEI in Lab and Field
From the conception of a research question, to the dissemination of research results, researchers at all levels make decisions that have an impact on who does and does not benefit from research. Resources here include evidence-based strategies, toolkits, codes of conduct, trainings and best practices for improving diversity and advancing equity and inclusion at all stages of research.

DEI Funding Opportunities & Grant Writing Resources
We are committed to supporting faculty, students and staff in identifying funding opportunities to support training and development for minoritized students and to engage in institutional research and programming to understand structural barriers and inequities in higher education and advance diversity, equity and inclusion. Please contact Research Development Services for support in developing your proposal.

Data and Findings Communication
A research endeavor that embraces equity and inclusion considers access to research data and research findings. The methods and means used for data collection, data sharing, analysis, retention and disposition; application of research results; and communication of research findings determine who benefits from the research and the knowledge it generates. These resources offer guidance for ensuring research practices advance inclusion and equity in research impact.

DEI Trainings
UO faculty, students and staff have access to a range of online trainings in diversity, equity and inclusion. DEI training promotes individual awareness and efficacy, helps create common ground among team members and contributes to the responsible and ethical conduct of research. These are just a few resources for finding free DEI resources for yourself, students, colleagues and/or team. The Division of Equity and Inclusion at UO also offers a robust central clearinghouse (available here) for resources and learning opportunities available to members of the UO community around diversity, equity, and inclusion topics.

What Does Inclusion Mean in the World of Research? Featured in and inspired by the SAGE sponsored webinar “What Does Inclusion Mean in the World of Research,” this website offers a list of resources for promoting inclusion in research - from supporting researchers of diverse backgrounds, to designing, implementing, funding, and publishing findings of research projects that are more inclusive of those who have been underrepresented, unheard, and underprivileged. Resources here come from funding agencies, nonprofit organizations/associations, journals and publishers. This space also invites members of the research community to share information and ideas about what can we learn from each other to enable new changes that address existing shortcomings in research. |
