The inclusion of diversity\nin research<\/strong> is a key concern for PhD students of the Doctoral School of\nArts and Humanities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Within philosophy, for example, theories on how to account\nfor the differences within our societies are increasingly present in national\nand international curricula, as well as increasingly urgent in order to rethink\nthe philosophical canon and to face the challenges posed by a society in\nconstant transformation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

But theoretical and methodological issues concerning\ndiversity are investing other disciplines as well. Psychology and pedagogy focus\non contexts whose composition in terms of gender, sexual orientation,\nethnicity, ability, and social class is becoming extremely varied, thereby\nrequiring more inclusive frameworks of analysis. History and literature, on\ntheir part, are confronted with diversity when it comes to analyse the colonial\npast and its legacies, or the growing literary production in the \u201cglobal south\u201d.\nSocial and political sciences are not exempted from this questioning either,\nsince they are committed to investigate \u2013 and counter \u2013 forms of discrimination\nand inequality deeply rooted in politics and society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"A<\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n

For all these reasons, the Doctoral School of Arts and Humanities, together with the INVITE project and the research centres PoliTeSse<\/a>, Hannah Arendt<\/a>, CRED – Education and Didactics <\/a> and the SLD-Lab of Research on Social & Language Development<\/a> at the University of Verona, has organized a series of five seminars for PhD students belonging both to the School and to the INVITE project, as well as for the teams and members of the research centres involved, where questions connected to diversity in research are addressed. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The schedule of the seminars, taking place at theUniversity of Verona from November 2019 to February 2020 <\/strong>with the participation of speakers from many universities across Europe, is the following: <\/p>\n\n\n\n
