Conducting Research with a Racial Equity Lens


Hosted by the Center for Community Health Partnership & Research

Collaborative Café: Conducting Research with a Racial Equity Lens, the final session of our Racial Equity series, will explore how different scholars use a racial equity lens to guide their research at each phase, from ideation to dissemination. Panelists will discuss ways that they have used a racial equity lens to frame their approach to research, including the theoretical framework that guides research, the questions that are asked, how data is collected, and how results are interpreted and shared. Researchers will also share how they handle issues around equity within their own research teams and partnerships. The moderated discussion will emphasize real-life examples from research projects and offer tips for researchers and community to design and implement studies that have an intentional approach to centering equity.

Attendees will:  

  • Understand examples of how to conduct research across multiple stages of development that is guided with a racial equity lens through real-life examples of research that center equity
  • Identify ways to manage a research team with a racial equity lens
  • Evaluate how to measure success and share results using a racial equity framework
