This webinar will introduce intersectionality both as a social construct and as a theoretical and methodological framework for research. Participants will explore how categories such as gender, race, class, disability, and sexuality intersect to shape lived experiences, data production, and knowledge claims. The webinar is for PhD candidates and postdoctoral researchers.
How can an intersectional perspective strengthen research design, ethics, and interpretation?
This webinar will introduce intersectionality both as a social construct and as a theoretical and methodological framework for research. Participants will explore how categories such as gender, race, class, disability, and sexuality intersect to shape lived experiences, data production, and knowledge claims.
Through discussion and reflection, the session will highlight how adopting an intersectional lens can help researchers:
identify blind spots in research design;
reduce bias in interpretation;
navigate power relations responsibly when working with participants and communities.
The webinar is organised within IN-ROOTS – Inclusive Routes and Roots for Doctoral Communities, a project developed under the Circle U. Flagship Initiatives on Equity, Diversity & Inclusion (ED&I).
The webinar will be streamed on Teams.
