Addressing Unconscious Bias – ExPECT

The video discusses the issue of unconscious bias in academic settings. Unconscious bias
refers to the automatic judgments we make about people based on stereotypes and
preconceived notions, which can influence our decisions and actions without us realising it.
Such biases can have significant consequences in review processes and should be avoided by implementing clear policies and guidelines.
