Funded Activity Summary

Uncovering epistemic injustice in Australian clinical psychology. This project aims to understand how clinical psychologists privilege Western forms of knowing in ways that have the potential to harm people from refugee and culturally and linguistically diverse (CALD) backgrounds. This is significant because a lack of understanding of diverse forms of knoweldge can lead to harmful or coercive interventions. The expected outcomes will be new knowledge about exclusionary practices in psychology and the design of educational tools to build capacity among clinical psychologists to notice and prevent exclusion. This should have significant benefits such as increasing inclusion for CALD people in Australian mental health services and preventing misunderstandings which can lead to coercive interventions.
