Fostering equity, diversity, and inclusion (EDI) at the CCA is important for reducing barriers that impede the full participation of people from equity-deserving communities and is key to ensuring we remain a dynamic, innovative, and effective organization. By embedding EDI principles into our workplace culture, we will foster an environment where everyone can contribute, thrive, and feel valued.
At the CCA, diversity is essential to the quality and relevance of our work providing evidence-based insights on complex public policy challenges in Canada. Diverse perspectives, backgrounds, knowledges, and experiences are critical to understanding and addressing issues of importance to people, communities, and governments in Canada. This commitment spans all of our operations, and we strive to ensure that our people, policies, and processes reflect the richness and diversity of Canada.
The CCA is proud to have adopted the Government of Canada’s 50-30 Challenge, affirming our commitment to gender parity (50%) and significant representation of equity-deserving groups (30%) across leadership roles throughout our organization—including senior management, Board of Directors, Scientific Advisory Committee, and expert panels.
