Centre for Student Equity, Diversity and Inclusion

The Centre for Student Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (CSEDI) works to cultivate a culture on campus that respects and promotes equity, diversity, inclusion (EDI) and social justice in all aspects of Laurier – from classrooms to residence communities.

We provide support, education and spaces for students to find community and engage in EDI initiatives.

Office of Human Rights and Conflict Management

The Office of Human Rights and Conflict Management was designed to create pathways for you to access multi-partial and confidential supports and services. The office helps Laurier students who have experienced harassment, discrimination, bullying, a toxic work or learning environment, significant interpersonal conflict, or a misapplication of university policy. They also support students who have experienced gendered and sexual violence on or off campus, or before coming to Laurier.

Reporting Incidents to Support Equity (RISE) Form

The RISE form was developed to help us understand patterns and trends of harm that take shape in the Laurier community.

This online form is for you to disclose incidents of harm or bias you experience or witness, such as actions motivated by prejudice against someone based on an identity or protected ground. You can choose to have your disclosure be anonymous. Any information that could identify you will never be publicly released in any reports.

Learn more about or submit a disclosure through the RISE form.
