In this one-hour webinar, the Global Excellence Initiative (GEI), welcomes Imogen R. Coe, Professor at Toronto Metropolitan University, for a timely discussion on embedding equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) into nomination and evaluation processes.

Moving beyond foundational EDI concepts, this session focuses on practical strategies to identify and characterize excellence using contemporary inclusive metrics and navigating institutional resistance to updated approaches to research recognition.

Designed for research office administrators, awards and nominations committees, and academic leaders, this webinar offers actionable insights to support fair, credible, and equity-informed research recognition.
