\n CRIW Funds Literature Reviews Examining Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in the Workplace\n <\/h1>\n \n \n <\/header>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n

The Centre for Research on Inclusion at Work (CRIW) today announced the six recipients of the CRIW Ignite! Special Funding for Literature Reviews. Funded by the RBC Foundation, the funding was issued by CRIW as a one-time supplement to the annual CRIW Ignite! Research Grant. This funding provides financial support for researchers to explore existing literature on equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) in the workplace and uncover new opportunities for research.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

CRIW\u2019s leadership sees literature reviews as a means to solidify knowledge and create a strong foundation to conduct more research work. The objective is to create useful assets for CRIW\u2019s research community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe hope the results of the literature reviews will form a collection of research that scholars affiliated with CRIW can draw upon to accelerate their research in the field of workplace inclusion,\u201d said CRIW Directors, Luciara Nardon and Andrew Webb. \u201cThey should become a usable contribution to all members of CRIW.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Nardon and Dr. Webb, were also pleased to see the breadth of the research topics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are thrilled to have strong interest from researchers in the field of inclusion and impressed with the breadth of topics that are being approached by our colleagues.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following six research projects received funding:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Indigenous and Anti-Colonial Approaches to Impact Measurement<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This literature review explores Indigenous approaches to impact measurement, a discipline rooted in the performance measurement and evaluation of social programs. While there is a significant body of work that examines how non-Indigenous researchers can appropriately evaluate impacts with and on Indigenous people, there is much less examination of if and how Indigenous organizations can adopt impact measurement in ways that are not colonial. Under the guidance of Indigenous impact measurement practitioners, this review will synthesize and critically reflect on Indigenous and anti-colonial approaches to performance measurement. The objective is to inform the development of impact measurement practice in Canada that is inclusive of, and equitable to, Indigenous communities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The research project will be conducted by:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
