DESCRIPTION:This communication examines how institutional contexts shape re
 searcher activity and outcomes. While comparisons often focus on personal 
 characteristics like privilege and identity\, they overlook how academic s
 ettings themselves create inequities. Drawing from previous initiatives at
  SIPS2025 and BTSCON2025\, we investigate key contextual constraints inclu
 ding teaching workload\, research infrastructure\, funding limitations\, i
 nstitutional policies\, and teaching language barriers.\nOur unconference 
 will gather direct experiences from researchers to identify and discuss si
 tuational obstacles while exploring potential gaps in our present approach
 . This qualitative phase aims to capture researcher perspectives\, constit
 uting the first step toward developing a comprehensive survey. In the next
  step\, relying on collaborators to expand this survey across multiple cou
 ntries will document major constraint patterns and identify systemic barri
 ers within academic institutions. This research ultimately results in a re
 port documenting academic settings\, with the optimistic goal of enabling 
 institutional reforms and supporting the creation of more equitable resear
 ch environments globally.
