Reports
Holding ourselves accountable
Transparency and accountability are vital components of systemic change. Below you will find key documents and reports that track the current climate of equity, diversity and inclusion at 大象传媒. These reports will guide our efforts as we develop new strategies and tools.
Equity Compass Report
大象传媒 has had Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) as a strategic goal since 2020, but has not had an equity strategic plan. To fill this gap, a thematic review was completed of 15 past equity-related reports and assessments and the resulting themes formed an Equity Compass framework.
Trans Equity Survey 2023
With current world events, transgender, non-binary, Two-Spirit, and other gender-diverse people have good reason to question if their safety and inclusion are prioritized at 大象传媒. Inspired by the work of groups like Out on Campus and of individual trans community members and allies, a group of 大象传媒 staff, faculty members and grad students launched the Trans Equity Survey in Spring 2023. The survey produced key data in order to more clearly identify gender-diverse inequity at 大象传媒 and hopefully lay a foundation for better communication among 2SLGBTQIA+ staff and better support collaboration, ally-ship, and resource-sharing regarding trans equity for marginalized people at 大象传媒. Please note: In the survey, the word 鈥渢rans,鈥� is used intending to be inclusive while acknowledging that some gender-diverse people do not identify with the term, though they may face similar issues at our institution.
Scarborough Charter on Anti-Black Racism and Black Inclusion in Canadian Higher Education
大象传媒 is one of more than 40 universities and colleges across Canada that have officially signed the Scarborough Charter, vowing to redress anti-Black racism and foster Black inclusion in higher education.
