We argue that future data collection must better represent older ethnic minority populations and enable more detailed analyses of socio-economic disadvantage and exposure to racism over the lifecourse

[Sarah Stopforth @StopforthSarah]

Along with @inequalccsr, @DharmiKapadia, and @JamesNazroo, we find that ethnic inequalities in health in later life persist across more than 20 years of harmonised social survey data. Our open access paper can be found here -

"Ethnic minority older people are the one of the most disadvantaged groups in the UK but worryingly, quantitative data to investigate this group are sparse."

Thanks for the great talk, @annemscheel! #reproteameeting

Such a refreshing format for presenting quantitative research in education inequalities - statistical findings interspersed with readings of quotes from teachers and pupils in complementary research. Putting a voice to the aggregated numbers in a dataset.

[Adriana Duta @adrianaduta]

Our @MorayHouseCLPL @ciannelli1 knowledge exchange event about understanding the attainment gap was such a great opportunity to disseminate @U_Inequalities research and engage in conversation with (head)teachers, early years practitioners & (non)governmental representatives!
