Description:
Gender aspects in research - opportunities for innovative science: Funding institutions such as the DFG are increasingly demanding that gender aspects be taken into account in research projects. Against common believe that we thus have to ‘put gender in’, gender and other social aspects are always tacitly part from the outset in research processes, from the research question to publication. We can not escape – but well reflect them. This workshop shows how we can systematically analyze tacit aspects of gender, race and other categories of discrimination in our empirical studies in the (natural) sciences. Using well tried concepts from 40 years of gender research, philosophy and history of science, you will discover how gender can be used as an analytical tool for more exciting research questions and more robust results. This can turn your research even more innovative and inclusive.
Qualification Objectives:
Discovering the embeddednes of empirical sciences in (historical) context;
learning tools to uncover tacit gendered aspects in scientific objects and procedures;
learning tools to systematically analyze the own empirical research process for aspects of gender and other diversity categories.
