2023 Early Career Researcher Conference: Call for proposals

2023 Early Career Researcher Conference: Call for Proposals

The Early Career Researcher Conference is an online, multidisciplinary conference hosted by the Centre for Research on Inclusion at Work (CRIW). Scholars exploring workplace inclusion-related issues among traditionally underrepresented populations, will come together to present their research and exchange ideas. The conference is aimed at encouraging interdisciplinary discussion and collaboration.

Who should apply: CRIW is inviting applications from graduate students, postdoctoral scholars, and faculty early in their careers or who are new to research on equity, diversity and inclusion. We encourage contributions from a variety of disciplines, including sociology, social work, psychology, anthropology, business, education, gender studies and others.

Research topics: All research focused on the work-related experiences of those from traditionally underrepresented populations (for example, Black, Indigenous and people of colour (BIPOC), immigrants, women, individuals with disabilities, LGBTQ2+ and youth) is welcomed. Both empirical and theoretical contributions are encouraged.

Proposal submission instructions

If you wish to present a paper at the conference, please submit in two separate files:

  • a title page containing the title of the project, along with the name(s), position(s), institutional affiliation(s) and contact information of all authors;
  • a 500-word abstract, including a statement of research questions, theoretical framework, methods and the main findings or argument (as relevant for the type of paper you are submitting).

Submissions are now closed for 2023.
