    Candidate Profile:

Underserved populations is an intentionally broad term use to include groups such as refugees, migrants, new-Canadians, members of the LGBTQ2S+ community, Indigenous Canadians, low-income families, and individuals facing disproportionate health disparities, who would all benefit from the focused efforts and niche expertise of a CRC applicant with expertise one or more of these populations as it relates to health. Drawing on existing expertise in population and public health, this chair can further integrate the synergistic, multidisciplinary contributions of nursing, nutrition, dentistry, urban planning, public health, epidemiology, political sciences, psychology, and sociology. By positioning this CRC in nursing, critical expertise in social justice, the social and ecological determinants of health and the United Nations sustainable development goals (SDGs) can be brought to bear in improving the health and wellness of underserved populations. This CRC can play a vital role in ensuring underserved populations are better positioned to fully engage in all aspects of Canadian society free from unresolved issues of equity, diversity, and inclusion ([DI).

  • Promoting unique knowledge mobilization opportunities that will build networks, relationships, and opportunities for expertise exchange among students, researchers, community partners, and decision makers
  • Effectively communicate and collaborate with researchers from various faculties, research institutes, communities, and universities in the area of health equity research.

  • Evidence of leadership ability and experience in an interdisciplinary academic environment (, mentoring undergraduate and graduate students from various faculties, facilitation of team initiatives, and leading collaborative teams)
