SUMMARY:The Impact of Social Networks on the Work-Life Choices of South Asian Women in Ontario\, Canada (Webinar)
DESCRIPTION:Webinar hosted by Canada India Research Centre for Learning and Engagement (CIRCLE)\nPresented by Anju Philip: Ph.D. Candidate\, Department of Management\, Gordon S. Lang School of Business and Economics\, University of Guelph \nSouth Asians are currently the largest visible minority group in Canada\, and there continues to be an influx of highly educated and skilled South Asian immigrants. This immigration of South Asian people into Canada belies the significant challenges they face in resettlement and integration. Existing scholarly literature indicates that South Asians struggle to find employment and once they do\, they continue to face discrimination. Additionally\, and in particular\, South Asian women continue to bear the burdens of managing most\, if not all\, household labour. Because South Asian women are known to be relatively more collectivist than other ethnic groups\, the influence of their social networks is particularly important to their perspectives and experiences of living and working in Canada. \nMy doctoral dissertation uses a grounded theory approach to qualitatively explore the personal networks of 31 working South Asian women from Ontario\, Canada using a two-part study (pre-interview questionnaire and interview). The overall goal was to explore the extent to which their personal networks impact their diverse choices surrounding work and life and the resulting consequences of choices made. The findings from this exploration of personal networks reveals who these women find to be most influential in their lives and how personal networks impact overall choices related to work and life roles. This research has provided a deeper understanding of one visible minority group in Canada and the recommendations derived from the findings could be used to address equity\, diversity\, and inclusion (EDI) issues\, creating work environments and policy changes that promote overall productivity and well-being for all diversity groups in the workplace. This study also provides insights to the South Asian community about the necessity of partner support and empowerment of South Asian women. \nThis webinar will be hosted over Zoom. Registration is required.

SUMMARY:Human Rights & You: Addressing Discrimination and Harassment on Campus
DESCRIPTION:This interactive workshop encourages participants to move beyond the text of Ontario’s human rights legislation to understand how legal requirements affect our day-to-day work. How do we identify when behaviour is harassment or discrimination? How do we know when behaviour rises to the level of a human rights violation? What is a reasonable response to a complaint in the circumstances? How do we prevent human rights violations from occurring in the first place? This workshops provides tools and strategies to respond to each of these questions.

SUMMARY:Protecting Individual Privacy in Machine Learning
DESCRIPTION:Abstract: Modern machine learning systems are trained on massive amounts of data. It turns out that\, without special care\, machine learning models are prone to regurgitating or otherwise revealing information about individual data points. This is problematic when parts of the training data are sensitive or contain private information\, as is commonly the case in many settings of interest. Dr. Kamath will discuss differential privacy\, a rigorous notion of data privacy\, and how it can be used to provably protect against such inadvertent data disclosures by machine learning models. He will focus particularly on recent approaches that simultaneously employ both non-sensitive and sensitive data\, granting significant improvements in the utility of privately trained models. He will also discuss pitfalls with these methods and potential paths forward for the field. \nBio: Gautam Kamath is an Assistant Professor at the David R. Cheriton School of Computer Science at the University of Waterloo\, and a Canada CIFAR AI Chair and Faculty Member at the Vector Institute. He has a B.S. in Computer Science and Electrical and Computer Engineering from Cornell University\, and an M.S. and Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He is interested in reliable and trustworthy statistics and machine learning\, including considerations such as data privacy and robustness. He was a Microsoft Research Fellow\, as a part of the Simons-Berkeley Research Fellowship Program at the Simons Institute for the Theory of Computing. He serves as an Editor in Chief of Transactions on Machine Learning Research. He is the recipient of the Faculty of Math Golden Jubilee Research Excellence Award\, an NSERC Discovery Accelerator Supplement\, and was awarded the Best Student Presentation Award at the ACM Symposium on Theory of Computing.
