'There have been other hard lessons about what happens when scholars ignore diversity in the composition of research teams and in their research approach.'
Earlier this year, NASA’s plan to conduct a historic joint spacewalk of two female astronauts outside the International Space Station was thwarted because the station did not have space suits that fit both women.
Databases used to study the genetics of disease largely made up of samples of people with European ancestry hamper the research and endanger the health care of those outside the database. Besides the evidence of these errors, there is an ever-growing body of research to show that diversity and inclusion amplifies excellence and, indeed, fuels creativity and innovation.
For example, laboratory experiments have shown that compared to all-white juries, diverse juries take more time to process the evidence and facts and engage in better deliberations. Research has demonstrated that systemic barriers and unconscious biases can prevent some scholars, with stellar curriculum vitae and demonstrated research excellence, from being nominated for prestigious research prizes and awards.
Over the next years, the best practice measures reinforced by the 2019 Addendum will enable a proactive approach to increasing the representational targets by 2029 and addressing blocked opportunity structures that impede the equitable participation of researchers from diverse backgrounds.
