IMPORTANT INFORMATION AND INSIGHT TO HELP GUIDE CHANGE
The worst thing that we could do when looking to create change to benefit people worldwide is make assumptions. Not truly understanding or listening to people across all populations has contributed to the current lack of diversity and inclusion. So, as we do our part to put the clinical research industry on the right path, we’ll be guided by genuine insight and in-depth research.
In this section, you can access the materials and resources that we’ll be creating and using to stay informed and to better our understanding. Please feel free to download, use and share.
If you’d like to collaborate on any research projects or resource creation in this area, please get in touch - we’re always interested in exploring new ways to deepen our knowledge.
And if you’d like to be kept up-to-date on the most recent information and new resources launching, simply sign up to our mailing list.
Language constantly evolves and adapts to reflect societal norms, and this is certainly true in healthcare and medical research settings. However, over the last decade or so, healthcare and medical research has fallen behind in ensuring that language remains inclusive and representative of everyone.

EXPLORING US MINORITY ATTITUDES TOWARDS CLINICAL TRIALS
Patient diversity is still a huge issue in clinical trials. And like us, you might be wondering why this is still an ongoing challenge, and how can it be improved?
This report summarises research from ethnic minority groups in the US to find the answers to those very questions.
Ethnic minorities are underrepresented in clinical research and that needs to change. But first, it’s important to understand why this is happening. And where better to start than with speaking to real people across a wide range of cultures and religions to get their thoughts, feelings and experiences?
This report reveals insights from the people, within the UK, themselves and discusses the starting points for overcoming current challenges.

DEMAND DIVERSITY LITERATURE REVIEW
It can only be a good thing to widen our understanding of diversity issues in clinical research. And to do this, we all need to consider the bigger picture. That’s why we’re providing a discussion of the literature on these key areas, just for you:
+ Current position of the pharmaceutical industry
+ Overall views towards the pharmaceutical industry
+ Barriers to healthcare and clinical research
+ The rationale for change, diversity and inclusion
So, if you’re interested in the evidence surrounding diversity in pharma and clinical research, take a look at what we found.
