Following the Webinar with ROOTS series and a previous Affinity Caucus series in 2021, ROOTS is once again working with the ECU community in building affinity caucuses to provide listening spaces across different identity formations.

These sessions focus on an intersectional approach and involve receiving, understanding and remembering lived experiences of injustice and struggle across the university.

This event is part of a series designed to enable Emily Carr University faculty and staff to participate in ECU's upcoming EDI Capacity Building grant.

Emily Carr University is a recipient of a two-year federal grant aimed at fostering greater equity, diversity and inclusion within the post-secondary research sector. This grant will help ECU identify, reveal and remedy systemic barriers that may impede the recruitment, advancement and research of underrepresented and minoritized faculty, specifically from an Academic Affairs and Research perspective.

Please direct your questions or concerns to stevenlam@ecuad.ca or research@ecuad.ca.

For more information on this grant opportunity, feel free to watch this Zoom video (password: t0!B#T..)

We are grateful to be working with you all on this activity. Stay tuned for upcoming updates and news.
