IPN'S Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Committee
The IPN EDI Committee aims to help promote a more equitable, diverse, and inclusive environment for the IPN community. Throughout the year, we work on improving resources and policies, offering workshops, and spearheading new projects to better support our students, postdocs, staff, and faculty. While our members all have lots of ideas, we welcome and encourage your engagement too!
Please contact us through our new email: edi.ipn [at] mcgill.ca, or leave a suggestion, comment, question, or concern here! Let us know how we're doing and if there is anything you would like us to improve. We are here to help however we can!
The IPN also has a more general anonymous Student Feedback Form available to submit anonymous questions, complaints, and feedback directly to the IPN administrative team.
In order to better serve the IPN community and address your needs, we invite you to share about your recent experience in the IPN in this survey. Topics include but are not limited to comfort, safety, discrimination, and support. This survey is anonymous and all questions are optional. The survey takes approximately 6-7 minutes to complete. Thank you!
Please refer to our Terms of Reference for more information.
