2022 PRIM&R Annual Conference

Advancing Equity and Justice in Research

Research Oversight Leaders and Institutional Officials

Plenary XVI: Institutional Official as JEDI Master

Thursday, December 15, 2022
1:30 PM – 2:45 PM ET
Location: Livestreamed
Livestreaming Session Icon Institutional Leadership Thought Leader Series
In the literary and cinematic franchise Star Wars, the Jedi Master was the highest formal rank obtainable by a member of the Jedi Order and reserved for those with not just skill, but devotion to the Force. More importantly, the Jedi Master was required to understand that the Force was powerful, but also needed balance in order to do good in the universe. For this session, the acronym "JEDI" stands for Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, but the need for balance is still applicable. Historically, race was used to establish superiority (e.g., Nazi Germany) or to extinguish autonomy with deception (e.g., Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male). In our current work, JEDI is an essential set of principles that must guide our work moving forward with institutional leadership setting the tone. This panel will examine the ways in which institutional leadership creates the environment and sets the expectations for effective application of the JEDI climate.

Learning Objectives:

  • Define JEDI
  • Examine the current state and explore how an evolved discussion moves us into the desired future state
  • Describe our robust current emphasis on JEDI, and its historical and future significance
  • Explain, in practical terms, how institutional leadership operationalizes JEDI within the organization and research enterprise
