项目摘要

SummaryBuilding on robust research findings about discrimination against Muslims on campus, this Follow on Fund will help universities to tackle religious, racial and gender discrimination by showing them how to encourage and facilitate difficult discussions, instead of avoiding them. Follow-on funds can address matters that could not be dealt with in the main research project and here we wish to draw attention to: a) racism that goes beyond the Muslim communities on campus, and b) potential opportunities to reduce racism through open yet civil discussions. The findings from AHRC/ESRC 2015-18: Representing Islam on campus AH/M00841X/1 demonstrate that Muslim staff and students are often denied a voice by discriminatory practices and negative stereotypes triggered by skin colour, clothing or other perceived differences. This is a form of silencing or testimonial injustice: Muslim staff believe they are not considered to have opinions worth hearing, discussing or sharing. As such, they self-censor to avoid conflict. Our findings resonate with recent research on National Health Service (NHS) staff of colour, who also report finding themselves ignored or not heard when raising concerns during the COVID-19 crisis. In the AHRC project, we noted similar matters but were unable to explore these as they went beyond the focus of Islam on campus: now it is urgent that they are shared and explored in discussion. So firstly, this Follow on Fund will disseminate our research findings and show the ways in which the student voice is silenced. We will engage key players actively in discussing these findings about Islam using a group discussion approach called Community of Inquiry. This approach facilitates honesty and deliberation in the face of controversial evidence. Providing solid evidence is only part of changing someone's views: engaging actively in discussion about such evidence is also necessary. By such means racism on campus can be recognised and addressed. Secondly, the key finding to which we could not do justice during the project involves addressing broad spectrum racism directed towards those considered different. We were told of covert and overt racism towards Black students and staff, and the negative stereotyping of Jewish students. As the current focus upon inequalities in the NHS resonates with our findings, we will also work with medical students to disseminate our work more widely, on university campuses that also provide medical training. The core team provides expertise in Judaism, Black lives and Islam to support universities. The Community of Inquiry group discussion approach facilitates trust, openness and civility - while always working towards group solutions. We will deliver significant economic, social, cultural and policy impacts by developing this into a training package for students and staff. The unspoken, discriminatory tendencies amongst students and staff can be reduced and replaced with critical dialogues and anti-discriminatory practices.

基于对校园中对穆斯林的歧视的强有力的研究结果，该跟进基金将通过向大学展示如何鼓励和促进困难的讨论，而不是回避这些讨论，帮助大学解决宗教、种族和性别歧视问题。后续基金可以解决在主要研究项目中无法处理的问题，在这里我们希望提请注意：a)校园穆斯林社区以外的种族主义；b)通过公开而民间的讨论减少种族主义的潜在机会。AHRC/ESRC 2015-18：在校园代表伊斯兰教AH/M00841X/1的调查结果表明，由于肤色、服装或其他感知差异引发的歧视性做法和负面刻板印象，穆斯林教职员工和学生经常被剥夺发言权。这是一种沉默或证词不公正的形式：穆斯林员工认为他们的意见不值得倾听、讨论或分享。因此，他们会自我审查以避免冲突。我们的发现与最近对国家卫生服务（NHS）有色人种工作人员的研究产生了共鸣，他们也报告说，在2019冠状病毒病危机期间提出担忧时，他们发现自己被忽视或没有被倾听。在AHRC项目中，我们注意到类似的问题，但无法探讨这些问题，因为它们超出了校园伊斯兰教的焦点：现在迫切需要在讨论中分享和探讨这些问题。因此，首先，这个跟进基金将传播我们的研究成果，并展示学生的声音被压制的方式。我们将采用一种名为“调查社区”的小组讨论方式，让主要参与者积极讨论这些关于伊斯兰教的发现。这种方法在面对有争议的证据时促进了诚实和深思熟虑。提供确凿的证据只是改变某人观点的一部分，积极参与关于这些证据的讨论也是必要的。通过这种方式，校园里的种族主义可以被识别和解决。其次，我们在项目期间无法公正对待的关键发现涉及解决针对被认为不同的人的广泛种族主义。我们被告知对黑人学生和教职员工的隐蔽和公开的种族主义，以及对犹太学生的负面刻板印象。由于目前对NHS不平等现象的关注与我们的发现相一致，我们还将与医科学生合作，在也提供医学培训的大学校园里更广泛地传播我们的工作。核心团队提供犹太教、黑人生活和伊斯兰教方面的专业知识，以支持大学。探究社区小组讨论方法促进信任，开放和文明-同时始终致力于小组解决方案。我们将通过将其发展为学生和员工的培训包来产生重大的经济、社会、文化和政策影响。学生和工作人员之间不言而喻的歧视倾向可以减少，取而代之的是批判性对话和反歧视做法。
