In an increasingly global and diverse
world, we need more practical and experiential, yet engaging and safe, ways to
learn to detect and respond to bias. The goal of this presentation is to describe
the ubiquitous nature of bias in our lives, from biased comments made about
others based on their group membership, to biases that affect the accuracy of
our decisions and the quality of our research. In addition, participants will
practice detecting and effectively responding to bias as it is a valuable
skillset for anyone wanting to be a global researcher or leader.
