Abstract:
The Government of Canada is dedicated to promoting greater representation and inclusion science through initiatives such as the Clerk’s Call to Action on Anti-racism, Equity, and Inclusion in the Federal Public Service. NRCan launched the Inclusive science research study to build capacity and inform the inclusive design, implementation, and reporting of scientific activities across the department. This symposium will leverage the inclusive science research study’s successes to integrate IDEA and GBA Plus and weave Indigenous knowledge system into science. NRCan executives and senior management will discuss the study’s structure, evidence synthesis, and engagement strategies, showcasing guidelines, best practices, and capacity-building initiatives designed to inform inclusive scientific activities across NRCan.
