Sruti Bala wrote an article for Bliss, the second post for the epistemic diversity series which discusses the practice of epistemic diversity from a researchers perspective.
Researchers face the challenge of engaging with the topic of epistemic diversity. We know that we should consider diverse knowledges in our research, but how can this be operationalised? This blog post engages with this question and shows us that it first of all means calling into question what we hold dear—the very ground on which we stand as researchers and the means by which we distinguish knowledge from non-knowledge.
