Just knowledge practices post on i2insights blog
Can you imagine that you are in a situation where no-one listens to you or believes what you have to say? And the reason they are not listening or believing is because of your race or your gender or where you come from or your accent, or an intersectional combination of all four? Or imagine that the knowledge of your community is seen as worthless and ignored, even when the community will suffer most when efforts to change it go awry?
This phenomenon is called epistemic injustice, and its counter is epistemic justice. A framework for epistemic justice is explored in the context of transdisciplinary research in a new Integration and Implementation Insights (i2insights) blog post1 by Sarah Cummings, Charles Dhewa, Gladys Kemboi, Stacey Young, and Mike Powell, based on research2 published in the journal Sustainable Development.
The same framework for epistemic justice was discussed in the context of international development in a previous RealKM Magazine article.
Articles from the Integration and Implementation Insights (i2insights) blog are regularly reposted in RealKM Magazine as this blog publishes a wealth of information relevant to research-informed knowledge management (KM) practice.
