EDI Caucus reposted this
Co-design is central to the caucus and central to successful interventions to improve working lives. Please sign up for our workshops to co-design enabling workplaces in the research and innovation ecosystem!
EDICa is hosting workshops to co-design virtual reality scenarios and training on how to make research & innovation workplaces more enabling. This work is in collaboration with Animmersion UK Ltd. We want to hear experiences both good and bad from a range of sectors, disciplines, and role types (PhD students, admin, researchers, inventors, technicians). Our online workshop for deaf BSL-users will take place on Tuesday, 21 January 15:00-17:00, facilitated by Jemina Napier. Our 2 online workshops for general admission are: Wednesday 22 January, 14:00 – 16:00 Thursday 23 January, 14:00 – 16:00 Please register your availability for all 3 options here: https://lnkd.in/eh5jA2qE EDICa is committed to enabling the participation of everyone interested. We have a budget set aside to remunerate participants with a low income. We are using the Minimum Income Standard for the UK in 2023 (see link here) which says a single person on £29,500 and a couple with children earning £50,000 between them is the threshold. For these workshops (2hrs) we would provide £100 in remuneration. If you are below those limits and need remuneration for your time, you can indicate this when EDICa contact you with a Zoom link. #BSL #BritishSignLanguage #Academia #Research #Innovation #Accessibility #A11y #EDI #DEI https://lnkd.in/eyiJCW8H
