EDI in Research

This course was developed for faculty members, students, post-doctoral fellows, and staff, who conduct and/or support research across the institution. It was created to support the application of equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) within research activities across all disciplines. Through an interactive learning space, researchers and their teams will explore resources and activities to build on their understanding to embed EDI in the design of research projects, development of research teams and culture, conducting research, and sharing research outcomes within and outside research spaces.

As a result of its excellence, Canadian research and innovation can be targeted by those who will go to any means to access, steal, and benefit from this research. This course will focus on introducing learners to why research security matters and some core competencies that will help them further understand why researchers and their work benefit from an enhanced understanding of research security.
