Building on the SREE 2022 conference—"From Reckoning to Racial Justice: Centering Underserved Communities in Research on Educational Effectiveness”—the SREE 2023 conference theme is about truly embedding equity into our research and practice. Doing so may require expanding our notion of what counts as evidence for decision making. We contend that doing so is the right thing for science and for society. To harness this integration and produce better, more relevant, more actionable evidence, we suggest considering the following: • embedding an equity orientation and equitable practices into experimental impact evaluations • embedding lived and front-line expertise with research independence • weaving qualitative and quantitative approaches together in producing evidence of educational improvement • embedding an equity focus into outcome measurement • integrating internal and external validity for rigorous, balanced, and useful evidence • integrating causal inference methods into capacity building and practice
