In terms of the concept note, I wonder if the theory/concept of epistemic injustice might be helpful to move away from the instrumental debates around EDI? I've just picked up the Routledge Handbook of Epistemic Injustice that says: As well as fundamental topics such as testimonial and hermeneutic injustice and epistemic trust, the handbook includes chapters on issues such as social and virtue epistemology, objectivity and objectification, implicit bias, and gender and race. Looks promising at first glance and may give us a different kind of language to discuss this topic. I might even be able to find a friendly St Andrews philosopher to join in...

Book Description

In the era of information and communication, issues of misinformation and miscommunication are more pressing than ever. Epistemic injustice - one of the most important and ground-breaking subjects to have emerged in philosophy in recent years - refers to those forms of unfair treatment that relate to issues of knowledge, understanding, and participation in communicative practices.

The Routledge Handbook of Epistemic Injustice is an outstanding reference source to the key topics, problems and debates in this exciting subject. The first collection of its kind, it comprises over thirty chapters by a team of international contributors, divided into five parts:

Core Concepts

Liberatory Epistemologies and Axes of Oppression

Schools of Thought and Subfields within Epistemology

Socio-political, Ethical, and Psychological Dimensions of Knowing

Case Studies of Epistemic Injustice.

As well as fundamental topics such as testimonial and hermeneutic injustice and epistemic trust, the Handbook includes chapters on important issues such as social and virtue epistemology, objectivity and objectification, implicit bias, and gender and race. Also included are chapters on areas in applied ethics and philosophy, such as law, education, and healthcare.

The Routledge Handbook of Epistemic Injustice is essential reading for students and researchers in ethics, epistemology, political philosophy, feminist theory, and philosophy of race. It will also be very useful for those in related fields, such as cultural studies, sociology, education and law.

Reviews

"... [A] comprehensive anthology on the current theories of epistemic injustice with important implications for future research. The diverse methods and topics of this text make it an excellent introduction for graduate seminars, as well as a common resource for researchers in the field. It includes contributions from most authors active in the field, with enough diversity in contributors to represent the substantive and methodological differences among them. ... The Routledge Handbook of Epistemic Injustice provides a great deal of content and opportunities in a single volume.""This could not be a more timely and consequential book. The editors assemble an impressive cross-section of contributors actively engaged in debates about the nature of epistemic violence, injustice, and responsibility. Best of all, they turn their gaze back on philosophy itself, and they turn it outward, asking what strategies of resistance, disruption, prevention and repair make sense, given their diagnoses of the problem. This is philosophy that 'lets the world in'." "The chapters collected here are authored by an all-star cast. They ably explore the many implications of epistemic injustice across philosophical sub-fields and through timely case studies. This Handbook takes the next step in broadening and deepening our understanding of this distinctive form of harm." - "This is a timely and well-constructed volume on the state of discussions around epistemic injustice. The interdisciplinary nature of the chapters and the comprehensiveness of the coverage makes it a 'must-read' for anyone interested in investigations into epistemic injustice today. I, for one, sincerely thank the editors for their service in bringing together diverse authors and an expansive range of topics for this grand and successful book." - Kristie Dotson, Michigan State University, USA Michael Brownstein, John Jay College of Criminal Justice (CUNY), USA- Alison Wylie, University of Washington - Seattle, USA, and Durham University, UK - Amiel Bernal, Social Epistemology Review and Reply Collective

Engaging others to think intersectionlly about EDI across different parts of the academic-policy engagment eco-system. What does that mean, what would it take, what would it acheive....etc?

# data[].attributes.body
(linked to problem framing note) Language framing: Parselling out EDI topics that are squarely about HR processes (eg fro recruitment) and EDI topics that are about the ways we understand and do academic-policy engagement is equitable, inclusive and with diverse people, communities, disciplines. This is not to keep them seperate, but enable a going beyond the equalities duty and to develop more nuanced language and enact different frameworks / investment to support good EDI practice.

Feels like 'equality' 'diversity' and 'inclusion' are massively different challenges- different goals and therefore approaches to explore and push. Worth parsing out a bit more and what this means for policy engagement in a concept note?

I feel like we don't have adequate problem framing for this issue in a brokering space. For e.g. we have ways of addressing it institutionally (EDI) and ways of talking about politics of policymaking. But how do we bring issues from research, policy and intermediary spaces together to identify our aims and agenda. Is there interest in fleshing out concept note to this end, perhaps further down the line
