A Guide to EDIA Considerations in Research

Supporting inclusive, equitable, diverse and accessible health research.

Who is this for?

  • Health researchers and research teams
  • Students and trainees
  • Anyone looking to design research that reflects and benefits all communities

Why does it matter?

Patient-oriented research should ensure all voices are heard and valued. Applying an EDIA lens ensures your work is inclusive, ethical, and meaningful and leading to more impactful results.

Get started

Answer these questions to start thinking about EDIA in your research.

Each question has Yes, No, or Not sure options. Feedback appears after you choose.

1) Does your project focus on a specific community or aim to reduce health or social inequities?

This can include Indigenous Peoples, cultural or social identity groups, or populations facing barriers to care.

2) Have you identified how your research will include, respect, and benefit people from equity-deserving groups?

Think recruitment/eligibility, measures, analysis, and sharing results back with communities.
