Notice of Collection

This self-identification form will be used to gather accurate data for the purposes of a competition to select nominees for a Canada Research Chair in the Dalla Lana School of Public Health (DLSPH). In order to address the under-representation of groups who experience systemic barriers among the division's Chairholders this competition is open only to those qualified candidates who self-identify as members of at least one of the four designated groups (women, members of visible minorities, persons with disabilities, and Indigenous peoples) or as trans, non-binary, or Two-Spirit. 

Because this is a targeted call, all applicants are required to indicate whether or not they self-identify as members of at least one of these groups.   

The identification of outstanding candidates from under-represented groups is central to the University's public mission and its pursuit of excellence and equity, as well as to its capacity to fulfill the objectives of the University's Canada Research Chairs Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Action Plan.

The collection, use, disclosure, retention, and disposal of your personal information are conducted in accordance with the Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy Act. Your information will be managed in accordance with University's guideline for the protection of personal and other confidential information.

The data collected via this form will be held confidentially, separate from all other employment or personal data, and will be accessed only by the University's Research Equity & Development Strategist. This information will be reported only in aggregate to the selection committee chair and equity officer, and no individual information will be shared with the committee members or others. Data collected via this form will be used solely for the purposes of this competition and may not be accessed or used for any other purpose, except as required by law.

The questions in this self-identification form are adapted from those used by the Canada Research Chairs Program and are consistent with wording found in the federal Employment Equity Act and the Accessible Canada Act, as well as the University of Toronto's Employment Equity Survey.

Please direct any questions about this survey to Andrea Gill, amk.gill@utoronto.ca
