The Global Disability Innovation Hub (GDI Hub) is a research and practice centre driving disability innovation for a fairer world that has grown rapidly to now operate in 40+ countries with more than 70 partners. We are the WHO Global Collaborating Center on Assistive Technology, based at UCL.
Our vision is of a world without barriers to participation and equitable opportunity for all. We believe disability innovation is part of a bigger movement for disability inclusion and social justice. More than a product, a service or policy, disability innovation is a way of thinking to address disability challenges by co-designing solutions and sharing knowledge. We are solutions- focused experts in, Assistive & Accessible Technology, Inclusive Design, Inclusive Education Technology, Climate & Crisis Resilience and Cultural Participation. We stimulate entrepreneurship by developing bold approaches, partnerships and ecosystems to accelerate change.
Role Purpose
The role will focus on understanding and exploring the links between Gender and Disability, including access to Assistive Technology, interactions with Poverty and Disability and Social Justice, working with our existing and new partners, including relevant UN agencies, community partners, and our funders or clients (often donors or development banks). This role includes undertaking and supporting research to address gender issues within disability inclusion, including barriers and facilitators to understand ‘what works’ to drive gender-inclusive access to assistive technology.
This role will undertake research (including research management; ethics; facilitation of qualitative and quantitative methods; other data collection activities; analysis; writing reports and papers; and dissemination of research findings) within the FCDO (Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office) funded ‘AT2030’ programme. Priority countries within the programme are in the regions of Sub-Saharan Africa, Asia and the Pacific and expect to include countries such as Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania and Indonesia.
The post would suit a post-graduate researcher with practice-based experience within the thematic areas of disability, gender and social justice, and a good grasp of both qualitative and quantitative research methods. Experience working in the global south or less resources context is preferrable, as well as strong communication, project management and partnership skills.
We are looking for a creative, rigorous, and empathetic individual, ideally, with skills and experience in working with a gender lens. A candidate who can work autonomously, and as part of a team across various inter-related projects would be welcomed.
The post holder will work within GDI Hub's Research and Delivery team but will also spend time with other team members and research partners as needed.
The role will be based at the dedicated GDI Hub space on the new UCL East Campus site within the 560-acre Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park, with easy access to all venues. The position comes with UCL Associate status, which provides access to UCL campus buildings and resources (e.g. library). The post-holder will also have access to an annual learning and development budget, a Wellbeing Bonus of up to £500 per year and 28 days annual leave.
Role Responsibilities
Role Objectives will include:
- Carrying out research to strengthen our data and evidence on the impacts of gender on access to assistive technology across the AT2030 programme.
- Support research projects focused on gender, reproductive and sexual health, and disability, including fieldwork/travel as needed.
- Support the research planning and delivery of projects regarding inclusive education, accessible healthcare and gendered design of AT including digital products and work with GDI Hub’s international partners.
- Contribute research support across the research and delivery team and Hub.
Support the inclusion of gender in GDI Hub’s work and collate disaggregated data to make recommendations for future work for GDI and its partners.
RESEARCH PRIORITIES: Explore gender influences in access to AT and social justice.

- To carry out research activities – conducting, analysing, and reporting theoretical and empirical results.
- To gather qualitative data, i.e., interviews, workshops, co-design/participatory design.
- To support dissemination of the project outputs, through contributing to writing and compiling technical reports and academic papers.
- To plan and undertake quantitative data analysis of gender related data.
