Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion

1

Recognize that the contributions of women, Indigenous persons, visible and ethnic minorities, and persons with disabilities are essential.

2

Be aware that these groups are more likely to be discriminated against in the recruitment, selection, and appointment process for Canada Research Chairs and other research activities.

3

Embrace diversity in all its forms—race, colour, place of origin, religion, immigration or Indigenous status, ethnicity, ability, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, and age.

4

Maintain equity between women and men, complying with legal obligations in that regard.

5

Promote equity for everyone (including women, Indigenous persons, visible minorities, and persons with disabilities), not only in recruitment, but also in appointments to Canada Research Chairs and in other activities.
