Intersectional Approaches to Equality Research and Data

Intersectionality recognises that people’s identities and social positions are shaped by multiple factors. Among others, a person’s age, disability, ethnicity, gender, gender identity, religion and belief, sexual orientation and socioeconomic background contribute towards their unique experiences and perspectives. This briefing provides guidance and examples of intersectional approaches to research design, and quantitative and qualitative equality research and data analysis.
