Javeed Sukhera: CERI Scientist, Associate Professor, Depts of Psychiatry/Paediatrics (LHSC), Story Sharer
Javeed has always been interested and passionate about education, particularly how we can learn to treat others who are different than us. His inspiration for his bias research has been shaped by his lived experience, and understanding that we are all a product of our experiences - to advance equity, we need to understand how to have sensitive and emotionally charged conversations. He also knows that we need to share our stories - stories can connect us, advance research, and enable understanding of things we don’t understand. In this episode, Javeed tells us his story of connecting his research interests, reconciling different aspects of his identity, and how he hopes to help others know that their stories matter.
