Event description:<\/strong> The collection and use of EDI demographic data is a newer concept and practice to the Canadian academic and post-secondary environment. While the collection of this data as requirements for labour mandates have been in effect, the analysis and use of the information have at times done more harm, especially to equity-denied groups, than good. In this session, Dr. Kaniki will define what EDI demographic data is, how it can\/should be collected and analyzed, and what administrators can do with this information to support EDI at the institution more broadly.\u00a0 Dr Kaniki will also cover some better practices and strategic use of EDI demographic data for administration and research purposes that are specific to the context of Canada.<\/p>\n

She is also the former Special Advisor on Anti-racism to the President at Western University where she supported the establishment of the inaugural office of the Associate Vice-President EDI and contributed to the implementation of significant EDI considerations for the institutional strategic plan.\u00a0 She holds a MSc in Kinesiology, PhD in Health and Rehabilitation Sciences with an\u00a0emphasis in Measurement and Methods, and a MA in Women\u2019s Studies and Feminist Research.
