If you have ongoing research concerns, I encourage you to register for this free online symposium on March 26th.
Dear Colleagues,
In light of COVID-19, we’ve flipped our “Going Public: Opening Research to All” symposium on March 26th to be fully online and invite you to join us in exploring issues of equity in the production of and access to scholarship.
Being public is one of the core tenets of the University of Washington. Open scholarship and going public with our research means engaging the broader community with our work. But how do we do that? Join us online for an interactive morning of discussion and skill building around the issues of (in)equity that inform communicating our research and accessing information, within and beyond the academy.
Highlights include:
- A keynote lecture with local Seattle celebrity, Nikkita Oliver
- Short sessions highlighting topics from public scholarship to equity in data visualization to equity in open education
- Panel on diverse design
This free interdisciplinary online event is open to all: faculty, staff, graduate and undergraduate students, and community members from outside the university. More than ever, sharing research quickly and openly is crucial and we hope this event can inspire and encourage us to give consideration to equity while doing so. Registration is free. Register today to reserve your spot!
This event is kindly hosted by the UW Libraries and co-sponsored by the Simpson Center for the Humanities, the eScience Institute, the Center for an Informed Public, the Technology & Social Change Group (TASCHA), and the UW Department of Gender, Women & Sexuality Studies.
Best,
Verletta
