Resources for diversifying your Reading List

A guide to finding research from underrepresented voices

The publishers, databases and websites listed on this page all focus on research and resources by marginalised or underrepresented groups. Research has shown that mainstream academic publishers and databases have a Global North and English language bias, research by women is less likely to be cited, and that work that centres the lives, experiences and perspectives of marginalised people receives less funding and prestige. This collection is designed to encourage you to look beyond traditional sources, to find research from across the globe and that reflects the diversity of voices involved in the academic conversation.
