<h3>Agenda </h3>13:00 - 13:15: Introduction13:15 - 14:15: Sandbox Activity14:15 - 14:30: Discussion14:30 - 15:00: Reflections from Colleagues (Participants TBC) Event descriptionFunders are placing increasing importance on equity, diversity and inclusivity (EDI) in their assessment of research bids, looking to see if researchers demonstrate a commitment to supporting a diverse and inclusive research culture in their applications. A sandbox environment is a space where people from different disciplinary backgrounds are brought together to discuss solutions to complex problems in a controlled, risk-free and safe environment. During this sandbox, you will be guided through activities that help you design a research bid – from the conception of ideas to the delivery of impact and outputs – that upholds, promotes and champions principles of EDI. This Sandbox is open to all applicants who are currently developing major research bids. Sandbox participants will be required to bring a completed Expressions of Interest (EoI) or 1-page project description along to the Sandbox to support their participation.
