Exploring Implicit Bias: Pathways for Transformation
June 11th, 2016
Kimberly Papillon, Esq., an internationally recognized expert on medical, legal, and judicial decision-making, led 100+ participants in an interactive seminar exploring what emerging neuroscience research reveals about how unconscious processes affect our daily decision-making. Participants were guided towards a better understanding of the sources of implicit preferences and were encouraged to heighten their awareness of these biases – to realise that they exist, that they are practiced, and that they undermine fair and just decision-making.
Professor Papillon strongly encouraged participants to take Implicit Association Tests (IAT), to aid participants in becoming aware of their own implicit biases. To take these IATs, please visit: https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/takeatest.html
