Collaborative to Advance Equity through Research on Women and Girls of Color Call for Proposals
The Collaborative to Advance Equity through Research, which the University of Connecticut joined in 2015, consists of more than fifty colleges, universities and non-profit organizations committed to studying and addressing the educational, health and social services disparities faced by women and girls of color. Through generous support from the Provost’s Office and the Office of the CLAS Dean, and hosted within the Africana Studies Institute, UConn’s Collaborative to Advance Equity aligns with Africana’s goals to prioritize research and collaboration that target health disparities and injustice as well as the health and well-being of populations both racialized and gendered.
We now seek relevant proposals from undergraduate, graduate, and student-faculty collaborators to conduct research during 2021. The submission deadline (including reference letters sent directly to Africana by the recommender) is November 20, 2020.
