The role of simulation in Equity, Diversity, Accessibility, and Inclusivity – EDAI
"In a complex world, different perspectives help us to understand and frame challenges, and to find and construct solutions. But in healthcare, just as in the broader world, many structures and processes serve to uphold the status quo and limit new and different voices.
With this Collection, we seek submissions that highlight the important and necessary role simulation can play in positively impacting equity, diversity, accessibility, and inclusivity within health and social care. We seek conceptual, methodological, and empirical studies, as well as detailed innovative practice that helps to advance the field. To further challenge the field and advance equity, diversity, accessibility, and inclusion, we seek not only traditional article types, but also manuscripts that support high-quality audio-visual material, artwork, and other formats that may fall outside of the realm of traditional academic publication."
