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.
