- More about Feminist Philosophy of Science
Feminist scholars have identified gender discrimination and bias in science, and an ameliorative project has explored their social and epistemological roots and consequences. Diversity is seen as a potential solution, but there are differences in the kinds and roles of diversity envisaged. Institutionalising diversity to counter epistemic injustice is essential for its epistemic benefits.

Feminist scholars have highlighted the pervasive gender discrimination and bias in science, recognizing the need for diversity to address these issues. Feminist philosophy of science has explored the social and epistemological roots of gender discrimination and bias, seeking solutions to counter their detrimental effects. While there is consensus among feminist philosophers on the importance of diversity, there are differences in the types and roles of diversity required. This essay argues that diversity is necessary to overcome previous biases and blind spots, but it must also be institutionalized to address epistemic injustice. Diversity should encompass both social locations and values to achieve its epistemic benefits.
