The Working for Inclusion, Diversity, and Equity (WIDE) committee is a permanent committee of the Canadian Society for Chemistry (CSC). CSC WIDE works to create a fair, barrier-free chemistry community that understands, values, and adheres to the principles of equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI).
WIDE is proud to host a series of four webinars (two in the Fall of 2024 and two in the Spring of 2025) focusing on topics related to EDI, including:
- Accessibility in research institutions
- EDI practices in teaching chemistry
- Conference safety: Resources and bringing awareness
- Biases in award selection processes and how to change it
- Guidelines for land acknowledgements
- Indigenization of the curriculum
