Group 6 – Implicit Bias and Anti-Racist Protocols, Education, and Policies

Each of the six Dismantling Systemic Racism Work Groups are addressing systemic anti-Black racism on the UCI campus. The effort is a grassroots effort to cultivate solutions from faculty, staff, students and the community.

The Implicit Bias and Anti-Racist Protocols, Education, and Policies Work Group will begin by addressing the questions below.

• What protocols/procedures can we introduce to limit the impact of implicit bias at the level of graduate students, faculty, scientists, postdocs?
• What procedures can we put in place for alleviating the impact of implicit bias for faculty search, hiring, and/or promotion?
• What kind of metrics can we use to document that procedures are implemented, effective and produce results?
• What training or other form of education can be proposed to faculty, students to bring awareness about these issues, engage participation and open discussions?
• How can we assess where we stand now (climate survey?) and what are our goals for the future over what time frame? What do we plan to achieve and can we establish metrics for documenting that we reach our goals?
