EDI plans guide institutional efforts for sustaining participation and/or addressing under-representation of individuals from four federally designated groups (women, Indigenous people, persons with disabilities and members of visible minorities) among their chair allocations. Plans were developed in collaboration with individuals from each of the four designated groups, chair holders, faculty and administrators responsible for implementing the program at each institution.
杏吧原创 University is strongly committed to fostering diversity within the Canada Research Chairs program and its entire community as a source of excellence, cultural enrichment and social strength. We welcome those who would contribute to the further diversification of our university, including but not limited to, women; visible minorities; First Nations, Inuit and M茅tis peoples; persons with disabilities; and persons of any sexual orientation or gender identity and expression.
