UBC Sauder is deeply committed to continually building and enhancing the principles of equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) across the school.
We believe we must be intentional in our efforts to foster a sense of belonging, and we must stand together to eliminate inequality in all forms.
A collaborative and respectful culture where everyone in our community can thrive and be included is a key principle in our strategic plan, and one that underpins our educational mission.
The School is focused on identifying and removing barriers for those who have been systemically, historically or persistently marginalized.
A vibrant and diverse student, faculty and staff community is one where all voices, experiences, ideas and identities contribute to making the school a more welcoming and enriching place to study, work and build lasting connections.
Within this section you will find information on the status and progress of Equity, Diversity and Inclusion initiatives at UBC Sauder, as well as opportunities for you to share your thoughts, experiences, and ideas.
We know that our EDI efforts are an ongoing journey and we want to acknowledge that we would not be able to do this work without dedication, input and engagement all of you -- our students, alumni, staff and faculty.
- Katherine White (she/her/hers), Senior Associate Dean, Equity, Diversity & Inclusion
We acknowledge that the UBC Point Grey campus is situated on the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam).
