Seval Gündemir UvA researchers Seval Gündemir (Work and organisational psychology) and Olga Sooudi (Anthropology) will conduct research on an inclusive academic culture: Gündemir on differences in perspectives and Sooudi on breaking with 'uniformity'. The two projects are part of a new research programme on equity and inclusion in academia, funded by the Netherlands Organisation for Scientific Research (NWO). Changing perspectives: Evidence-based perspectives on integration intervention strategies to make academic institutions more inclusive ( Dr S. Gündemir (UvA) and consortium members from EUR, VU) An inclusive academic culture is essential to attract and retain diverse talent and to provide an environment where all individuals can flourish. Achieving an inclusive academic culture requires attention to different perspectives, and these differences should be taken into account in decision-making processes and everyday interactions. This project explores the key ingredients of effective perspective integration to promote inclusion in academia. Breaking through the 'sameness' of Dutch academia ( Dr O.K. Sooudi (UvA) and consortium members from RUG, TUD, UMCU, WUR) When organisations talk about equality, diversity and inclusion, they mainly focus on helping minority groups. But what about the norm group? This project examines what individuals and organisations do to maintain the norm, or 'sameness' (uniformity), by perpetuating privilege on the one hand and reproducing marginalisation on the other.
