Beyond binaries research

Exploring diverse identities at work

Breaking Binaries Research was founded by Helen and Katrina in 2022 to explore complex and diverse identities at work.  This research received funding from the Institute of Small Business and Entrepreneurship and the CIPD. This research programme challenged problematic categorical understandings of difference in the context of work. We explored the multifaceted ways in which identities are understood, assumed and constructed. Research has yet to take account of how diverse identities are not simply categorical but complex and intersectional, as individuals self-identify beyond, between or across identity binaries.  This programme of research projects sought to address and progress current conversations of diversity at work.
