Inclusive Innovations Speakers Series - Thomas Woodson

Inclusive Innovation and the Broader Impacts of Science Funding In the past, much of the driving force behind science and innovation came from wealthy nations, such as the United States, England, and Japan. However, global problems, such as climate change, digital privacy, and dwindling natural resources, cannot be solved by wealthy scientists in wealthy countries developing solutions for wealthy people. Rather, the innovations to solve global challenges must be inclusive. People from marginalized groups are central to developing lasting solutions that solve challenges at global proportions. This presentation discusses some of the theories and policies used by governments and science agencies to promote inclusive innovation. In particular, Dr. Woodson will review his research on the broader impacts of research and the inclusion-immediacy criterion that he developed to assess the impacts of scientific research.
