Last year we started the project I Act: Co-designing actions supporting racial justice driving inclusive implementation science. This project aims to co-create actions for the Amsterdam Public Health research institute (APH), to promote an inclusive working climate and inclusive academic research. We could use your help!
To get a better image of where we have to focus the actions on, we want to get a better understanding of the diversity and experiences with discrimination among colleagues. We already sent out a survey within APH at the end of last year and next we would like to organize group interviews with employees. With the results of the survey and group interviews, we want to develop actions for positive change together with the APH Diversity Commission. For both the group interviews (1) and the Diversity Commission (2), we are looking for colleagues who are interested to participate.
