Description
Summary:As we anticipate the readers of this journal are aware, there have been a growing number of conversations in recent years regarding equity and justice. These discussions have spread throughout many fields and sectors, including among those of us in the public policy analysis and management social sciences. Our own organization (Mathematica) joined with eight others in the policy research field to form the Evidence and Equity Collaborative. This column shares different authors' perspectives on such key topics as how researchers can conceptualize the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion in their work and how quantitative research methods have the opportunity to more accurately reflect the experiences of those from historically underrepresented communities.
