** Sent on behalf of the Departmental Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Committee **
Dear Master’s/PhD Students in the Department of Psychiatry,
As you may be aware, a refreshed Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) Committee is being established in the UBC Department of Psychiatry. This Committee will be comprised of members from across the Department with diverse experiences and perspectives, working together to examine issues related to equity, diversity, and inclusion in order to provide consultation to the Department Head.
At this time, we are calling for expressions of interest for a Graduate Representative who is currently enrolled in a Master’s or PhD program to serve on this Committee.
If you are interested, please send an email with a brief rationale for your interest in joining this Committee to Dr. Andrea Tuka at andrea.tuka@ubc.ca.
Sincerely,
Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Committee
Department of Psychiatry
