A message from Santa J. Ono, President and Vice-Chancellor

Last fall UBC announced that the Equity and Inclusion Office would be undergoing a leadership change, with the departure of Dr. Sara-Jane Finlay.

I am now pleased to launch a search for a new lead of our Equity and Inclusion Office. As UBC continues to advance its equity, diversity and inclusion initiatives, we will also be exploring ways for this role to provide leadership for accessibility.

The new lead for Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion will work to advance human rights; planning and evaluation; education; and systems change across the university. The Equity and Inclusion Office works in partnership with units across both campuses to embed equity, diversity, inclusion and access into the structure, policies and processes of UBC.
