Why contracts often reproduce hierarchy rather than protect lived experienced collaborators. We look at co-researcher contracts, university assumptions of “vulnerability” around mental health and lived experience, IP clauses, liability, and when refusing a contract is the ethical choice.
This session tackles university rules around “incentives” and payments, fair compensation, undocumented participants and people on benefits, and why universities routinely block ethical payment. Suggested Researcher: Someone from Survivor Voices would be good/ And/or someone from a university ethics committee who could provide constructive advice on how to communicate to a committee.
