Consequences of not meeting the program’s equity, diversity and inclusion requirements

The Government of Canada is committed to excellence in research and research training for the benefit of Canadians. Achieving an equitable, diverse and inclusive Canadian research enterprise is essential to creating the excellent, innovative and impactful research necessary to seize opportunities, and for responding to global challenges.

The following pages summarize consequences being imposed on institutions that do not meet the program’s equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) requirements. Additional information on the program’s EDI requirements and practices can be found here.

Footnote *

In all cases where an institution’s equity targets and the representation data is less than five, results are withheld to protect the privacy of chairholders in alignment with the Privacy Act. There may be additional institutions that are not meeting their equity targets and have consequences imposed against them, but only those shown could be reflected in the table above. As of September 2021, a total of nine institutions have had consequences imposed for not meeting their December 2019 equity targets. In all cases, these institutions are limited to submitting new nominations only when individuals self-identify as belonging to one or more of the designated groups, and when the institution has a target for that group.
