Strengthening accessibility, safety, and full participation of Equity-Deserving Groups in research through grant review infrastructure.

One Child Every Child's Equitable Pathways Accelerator has developed three core assessment tools—an inclusive and responsible research assessment reviewer guide, a reviewer scoring sheet, and a grant reviewer checklist —for OCEC programs and grant submissions.

These deliverables advance inclusive and responsible research assessment by aligning with DORA principles and the narrative CV approach. 

These resources are designed to embed considerations for each equity deserving group, including but not limited to, women and girls, persons with disabilities, Black and scholars and communities, 2SLGBTQIA+, as well as at their intersections, and in parallel with Indigenous peoples, directly into grant review. As well, these resources establish clearer pathways for inclusive research participation and ensures that OCEC’s assessment processes meet national and international best-practice standards.
