The Prizes, Awards and Grants Workshop is being organised by the Science Council and the Royal Academy of Engineering to support diversity and inclusion (D&I) progress across science and engineering professional bodies making use of the D&I Progression Framework. This workshop will focus on developing professional body capability to increase D&I in prizes, awards and grants by exploring challenges and sharing good practices in relation to:
- transparency of process and judging
- minimising unconscious bias
- gathering data from and giving/receiving feedback nominees and applicants
- celebrating winners and
- planning for change.
A separate workshop focusing on Education, Training and Accreditation and Examinations will take place in the autumn.
