Academic research can help us tackle the problems facing our communities, build collaborations and resources, influence policies, and achieve personal development. So we must ask whose experiences, knowledge, and culture are included and valued in our academic programmes, and whose are not?

What is needed to bring to light the experiences of Black students – what are the interpersonal interactions, platforms and practices that are needed within or beyond the academy?
