Description
This workshop forms a key part of the Equality, diversity and inclusion caucus – flexible funding (EDICa) research project exploring the impact of hybrid working on Black female academics’ visibility and productivity post-COVID.
Discussions will be guided by the project’s findings and will explore questions including:
- What policies can support Black women academics in higher education?
- How can the impact of this study benefit Black women academics and their employers?
- What policies are needed to recognise and address the impact of intersectionality on Black female academics (BFAs)?
- How can institutions better support BFAs’ visibility, progression and sustained productivity in UK higher education?
These questions are indicative and may evolve as analysis progresses. The organisers warmly welcome expert perspectives and recommendations to inform the final submission, due in June 2026.
