SUMMARY:Oxford Biomedical Research Centre EDI Lunch & Learn - Equality Impact Assessment and Inclusive Research Design
DESCRIPTION:Stephanie Perrin\, Equality\, Diversity and Inclusion Officer at the Agile Initiative\, will be talking about Equality Impact Assessment and Inclusive Research Design. The session will be online. \nAn Equality Impact Assessment (EIA) is a way to identify the possible impacts of a research project or decision. Researchers can use this tool to understand the effects of their work on trial participants or members of the research team\, based on their protected characteristics\, and mitigate potential negative impacts and promote positive ones. \nCompleting an EIA helps ensure that research processes are fair and do not present barriers to participation. It is a great way for researchers to embed equality\, diversity and inclusion through all stages of their projects\, be it research design\, engagement or participant selection. \nIn this talk\, Stephanie will explain why EIAs are important\, how to use them and how you can apply them to your research to demonstrate how you have considered inclusion. There will be an opportunity to ask questions. \nFind out more and register.

SUMMARY:HDRUK Oxford Policy Masterclass - Overview of the machinery of policymaking\, examples from digital technology and social care\, key considerations of when engaging with policymakers
DESCRIPTION:Overview: With science\, health and politics increasingly in the popular press and media the interface between scientific evidence and its use in informing health policy is never more under the public scrutiny. Health data research can play an important role in informing health policy -current and future. Yet the two sectors of academia and policy can act somewhat disparately\, resulting in research and policy making being siloed. \nAim: In the inaugural masterclass series\, we aim to deliver a varied session that combines demystifying the wheels of policymaking\, exploring successful examples of health research informing policy and lively debate on how and when scientific evidence could inform future policy development through a topical example. \nWelcome from Professor Sir Aziz Sheikh \nTommy Wise\, Policy Lead for Care Technology\, Department of Health and Social Care \nPanel discussion: Research and Policy Interface: The Evidence Quandary \nProfessor Cathie Sudlow and Professor Dame Jenny Harries \nHands on policy masterclass (only for DPhils and ESRs) \nInstructors: Jose Rojas Alvarado (OPEN Policy Network) and Tommy Wise \nRichard Doll Building Lecture Theatre \nIn person only \nRegister \nLunch and refreshments \nFind out more

SUMMARY:The Past is Not Past: Incorporating Historical Context into Psychological Therapy with People from Minoritised Ethnicities
DESCRIPTION:Historical context is a key factor in psychological therapy with people from minoritised ethnicities. The ongoing effects of historical experiences of discrimination and self-empowerment continue to shape the lived experiences of people from minority ethnic communities and influence their interactions with psychological therapy and healthcare systems in general today. However\, historical context remains underexplored in the academic mental health literature. \nThis webinar will explore why and how historical context should be incorporated into psychological therapy with people from minoritised ethnicities. It will have a focus on cognitive behavioural therapy and will\, in addition to a theoretical conceptualisation\, suggest practical steps attendees can take to include historical context in their work. The histories of minority ethnic communities are also relevant in healthcare services in general\, so there will be some discussion of how these historical legacies might be addressed across the healthcare system. \nMore information and registration.
