CCLA has written to the Ministers of Industry and Health urging the federal government to reject the House of Commons Science and Research Committee’s recommendations to remove equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) from the criteria used by CIHR, NSERC and SSHRC. EDI and research excellence are not competing goals. Measures that identify and address systemic barriers help make sure talent is fairly assessed, and they are fully compatible with academic freedom. Read our letter here.
