Dialogues in Ethical Research, or simply referred to as Dialogues, is a graduate student gathering within the Ethos of Care community of practice. These informal, roughly 90-minute sessions build on the main Ethos of Care workshops, giving graduate students room further develop and elaborate dialogue takeaways from main Ethos of Care sessions. Whether you're navigating community partnerships, repatriation, questions of consent and authority, or just trying to figure out what ethical, non-extractive research looks like in your particular project (and your particular discipline), you'll find peers working through similar challenges. Sessions are shaped and formed around students, making time for open dialogue and collaborative problem solving. Organized by graduate students, for graduate students, Dialogues is grounded in the same commitment themes that guide Ethos of Care: reciprocity, true collaboration, and radical empathy.
