UNB signs Scarborough Charter, commits to inclusion, equity

The University of New Brunswick has signed the Scarborough Charter on Anti-Black Racism and Black Inclusion in Canadian Higher Education, pledging to advance inclusion and equity on campus. This national framework outlines specific actions that institutions can take to proactively address anti-Black racism and advance Black success. These actions include developing anti-racism policies, supporting Black-led research, and creating mentorship programs for Black scholars. “We know that diversity in thought, background and experience strengthens our academic community, and we are determined to build on this by prioritizing initiatives that increase Black representation among our students, faculty and staff,” said UNB President Dr Paul J Mazerolle.
