Asper’s commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion
The Asper School of Business strategic plan outlines inclusiveness as a principal value of the School. The plan calls on us to provide “a welcoming and respectful environment that honours Indigenous perspectives and embraces diversity in all its forms.” It represents our collective will to work together and generate a positive societal change.

To support our commitment to this issue, the School has formed an EDI taskforce, which aims at proactively addressing discrimination head-on.

Through the EDI task force, we endeavor to foster a more inclusive learning environment for every single student that attends and/or interacts with the Asper School of Business.

The Asper School of Business is committed to welcoming, involving and mutually learning from, as well as with, all members of our community: we take great pride in the diversity of our students, our faculty and our staff.
