SUMMARY:Countering Policy Exclusions: Centring accessibility to advance the right to housing
DESCRIPTION:Despite a range of policies\, promises\, and protections\, housing for people with disabilities—and specifically that considers the distinct experiences of women and gender-diverse people with disabilities—remains deeply inadequate in Ontario and across the country. People with disabilities face disproportionate rates of homelessness\, housing insecurity\, and housing inadequacy\, and women with disabilities are especially likely to experience homelessness because of violence or abuse. This creates dangerous consequences when coupled with inadequate housing supports in communities across Ontario\, a failure to centre accessibility in efforts to increase housing supply\, and grossly inadequate social assistance rates for people with disabilities. \nJoin a conversation with civil society leaders and researchers about what is needed to ensure the right to housing for women and gender-diverse people with disabilities across the province\, and the role of women and gender-diverse people with disabilities in leading responses to these housing failures. \nRegister to attend in-person (space is limited) or to receive the Zoom link.

SUMMARY:Making Space for Progress: Internationalizing the University as Social Justice
DESCRIPTION:The University of Guelph’s Strategic Refresh highlights the commitment of the university to “further international relationships” as a part of its overall pillar of community connection. The University has also taken measures to advance and entrench equity\, diversity and inclusion into its core values and deliverables. \nThe Teaching and Learning Hub welcomes guest speaker Marsha Hinds Myrie to aide us to contemplate the implications and possibilities of those intersections and offers an innovation of academic internationalization praxis undergirded by social justice. \nThis is a hybrid event. Register to attend via Zoom here. \nMarsha Hinds Myrie looks to the literature resulting from the study of universities’ involvement in the enterprises of African and Indigenous dehumanization and student led justice movements. Beyond highlighting the errors of the past and the passionate demands of students we begin to think about futures and how these can be constructed making space for expanded epistemologies and new relational pathways. \nHinds Myrie’s life and work are an embodiment of dualities and intersections. She is a Barbadian/Canadian citizen with an ancestral\, cultural and intellectual home in Africa. Her career unfolds\, sometimes spectacularly and sometimes confusingly at the intersections of activism and education with research being a forced endeavour to maintain the grace of the academy. \nHinds Myrie is the President’s Gender Equity Committee postdoctoral fellow with a focus on women’s leadership at the University of Guelph and the immediate past president of the National Organization of Women of Barbados. She spent 22 years developing an advocacy model to address the issues of underprivileged groups of women in Barbados and the Commonwealth Caribbean. The major focus of the work is to develop and encourage the use of victim defined services for women and girls affected by various types of gender-based violence while at the same time removing the burden of eradicating violence from women and victims by forcing a stronger lobby in policy spaces. \nThe philosophical mooring for Marsha’s interaction with equity work come partly out of her PhD research which focused on the ways in which political and cultural experiences shaped the development and creation of intellectual spaces and intellectual thought in Commonwealth Caribbean tertiary institutions. The epistemological valleys that create disciplines in the Western academy are still immensely uncomfortable for Hinds Myrie but if forced she would classify her work as womanism\, Black Studies\, philosophy as praxis and intellectual history.

SUMMARY:Kerala Return Migrant Survey 2021: The Case of COVID-19 Return Migrants
DESCRIPTION:The Canada India Research Centre for Learning and Engagement (CIRCLE) hosts a presentation by S Irudaya Rajan\, Chair\, International Institute of Migration and Development \nReturn migration is an optional yet natural consequence of emigration. Considering the Kerala migration pattern which results in a large number of migrants located in the Gulf\, where permanent residence remains a pipe dream\, return migration is almost inevitable. The COVID-19 global pandemic precipitated an unprecedented wave of return migration across the globe. We document the experiences of 1985 return migrants through a quantitative survey. While return migrants have always been a demographically and economically significant section of Kerala’s population\, the COVID-19 return migrants represent a unique case in history with ramifications for the economy\, society\, and psyche of Kerala. \nS Irudaya Rajan is currently visiting CERC scholar at the Toronto Metropolitan University. He is Chairman of the International Institute of Migration and Development (IIMAD)\, and chair of the World Bank’s Global Knowledge Partnership on Migration and Development (KNOMAD) thematic working group on internal migration and urbanization. For 35 years\, he was a professor at the Centre for Development Studies\, and chair of the Research Unit on International Migration funded by the erstwhile Ministry of Overseas Indian Affairs\, Government of India (2006–16). Rajan was the Founding Editor-in-Chief of the journal Migration and Development and the editor of the Routledge series India Migration Report and South Asia Migration Report. \nA light lunch will be provided. Please register if you are planning to attend to help us order the right amount of food. \nPresented by: Canada India Research Centre for Learning and Engagement (CIRCLE) at the University of Guelph.
