Coley’s research lies at the intersection of racial equity, mental health and qualitative research methods encompassing critical theory, participatory action research, and arts-based research methods. Her work is anchored in an intentional amplification of the voices of mi- noritized populations in STEM with the goal of informing disruption of the pervasive systemic inequities found in racialized organizations such as institutions of higher learning. Leveraging the outcomes of this work, Dr. Coley will continue to create exemplars of equity in action across realms of the academic enterprise—lived experience and restorative justice, scholarship generation and metrics, and rewards sys- tems and structures.

main objective of this project is to develop a new pedagogical approach composed of twocomplementary components aiming at integrating equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) intoundergrad engineering programs at Université de Sherbrooke (UdeS) (Canada): (1) a trainingprogram and (2) a numerical tool for inclusive design. The training program will comprise twomodules. The first one will be for design instructors so they can develop the skills to teach theseabilities in class and learn how to use of the tool. The second module will be for undergraduatestudents to develop their ability to integrate EDI into design projects.This paper focuses on the progress of the development of the digital tool for inclusive design.Mainly, the content of the tool
