A message from the Office of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Anti-Racism (EDI-R) to our community:

https://uwaterloo.ca/human-rights-equity-inclusion/news/update-new-equity-diversity-inclusion-and-anti-racism-office

"We are grateful for the time and energies that the campus community so generously gave to the external review committee: sharing experiences, frustrations, hopes, and—importantly—being an essential catalyst for the changes we are seeing and will see in the future.

We know that we have work to do to (re)build trust and to foster strong relationships across this campus. Our commitments outlined here are just a start. We will be accountable. We will be accessible. We will be responsive. We will be leaders in equity, diversity, inclusion and anti-racism, but we need you to be co-leaders with us. This is the work of every person on campus, and we are excited to create the space and opportunity for collaboration and community."
