Equity, Diversity and Inclusion

Inclusive Excellence is a cross-cutting priority in UBC’s strategic plan.

UBC believes that sustained excellence in research, education and engagement depends on the integration of diverse perspectives and approaches and the inclusion of those who have been historically, persistently or systemically marginalized.
