What does Equity mean at U of T?
At the University of Toronto, we believe that enhancing the diversity of our staff, students and faculty to reflect our local and global community is a source of strength.
Through our equity programs, services and offices, we are working to remove a range of barriers and support our community members in fulfilling their academic, research and employment goals. We strive to cultivate a teaching, learning and working environment that is equitable, accepting, inclusive and free from discrimination and harassment.
Our equity offices assist faculty, staff and students with concerns and challenges related to their experiences at the University. Staff from the equity offices engage in outreach and education across all campuses and provide guidance on specific issues as they arise. Equity officers advise the President, the Vice-President Human Resources and Equity, the Vice-Provosts Faculty & Academic Life and Students, and other senior administrators on how U of T can best realize its commitment to equity, diversity and human rights, and provide guidance on specific issues as they arise.
