Aim & Scope
Diversity & Inclusion Research is an Open Access, multidisciplinary journal publishing high-quality research focussed on improving diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility at the individual, organizational, and societal level. The journal aims to contribute towards the deepening of local and international; theoretical and practical understandings of DE&I. We welcome research from all disciplines that investigates questions of opportunity, inequality, diversity, access and inclusion as related to gender, ethnicity, class, citizenship, dis/ability, age, sexual orientation, religion, as well as other forms of inequality and protected characteristics. We also encourage research that is specifically connected to opportunities for furthering the UN Sustainable Development Goals. The SDGs most aligned with the journal's coverage are SDG 5 (gender equality), SDG 8 (decent work and economic growth), SDG 10 (reduced inequalities) and SDG 16 (Peace, Justice and Strong Institutions). Topic coverage will evolve as fields of study develop within disciplines. The journal will accept submissions of empirical, theoretical, and methodological articles, as well as new and experimental forms of research, replication studies, case reports, data reports, ‘state of the field’, and negative findings. We are particularly interested in methods papers that identify the key issues faced when designing and conducting studies, and which offer practice recommendations for improving diversity and equity in all stages of the research process.
