Today@Dal

​At Dalhousie, we aspire to be a national leader in championing equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility (EDIA). Inclusive excellence is core to our new strategic direction, Third Century Promise, and the efforts of our faculty, students and staff in advancing EDIA are vital to our collective success.

Each year, we recognize individuals and groups across our campuses who have made outstanding contributions in this space with President's Awards for the Advancement of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Accessibility – and we are now inviting nominations for the 2020-2021 awards. 

We encourage the nomination of individuals or groups (including units, departments, faculties, or campus organizations) and will be providing three awards:

• A faculty or staff individual award
• A faculty or staff group award
• A student individual or group award

Nominees should demonstrate a commitment to dismantling systemically unjust structures and promote an inclusive campus community at Dalhousie, going above and beyond what would normally be expected in their everyday duties to accomplish these objectives. 

If you have worked with an individual or group who deserves recognition for their exceptional or creative efforts to advance Dalhousie's EDIA work, please nominate them by August 31, 2021. 

More information about the nomination process, along with the nomination forms, may be found here.​
