Join us for an engaging session on putting ethics into action through inclusive participant selection. Using a real-world case study, we’ll explore the challenges of recruiting diverse participants and walk you through the steps to research design that reflects equity and balance.

Using Canada’s Tri-Council Policy as a guiding principle, you will learn to create research participant models that are robust and inclusive, and leave with practical strategies for incorporating equitable recruitment and sampling in your own work.

In this fast-paced 90-minute workshop, you'll dive into real case studies, hear expert insights, and take part in interactive activities. Come ready to reflect, discuss, and tackle inclusive research design challenges you might face in your own research.
