The MRS Representation in International Research Guide.
These guidelines are authored by Ruth Partington (Empower Translate), Cathia Randrianarivo (CrowdDNA), Trixie Cartwright (Ipsos) and Debrah Harding (MRS), and form part of the MRS’ Representation in Research efforts to ensure inclusive, representative, and safe global research. They identify three core areas to help practitioners address and navigate representation in international research:
- Identification: Deciding on the degree and nature of inclusivity
- Risk Mitigation: Identifying impact; offsetting potential pitfalls
- Localisation: Improving accessibility; deepening cultural understanding
