Research Justice Institute is hiring a new Senior Researcher to lead the Institute’s equity research projects. As a Senior Researcher, you will help address research and data inequalities within our current systems by collaborating with and advising dominant institutions so that they better understand, engage, and center communities of color. You will also collaborate with other staff on community-led and -driven research and data practices. As a critical part of a small but growing team, you will work to achieve near and long-term strategic objectives, building new relationships and strengthening existing ones, representing the Research Justice Institute, and contributing to a unique cross-cultural coalition working toward racial justice.
