The Toronto Initiative for Diversity and Excellence (TIDE)

This grassroots service group consists of University of Toronto faculty members from across disciplines, who volunteer their time to support action on equity and inclusion at U of T through research-informed, peer-to-peer education and knowledge translation.

“…without TIDE we would not be making any shifts in getting our non-Black colleagues to hold the space and to make the space.

Professor Rhonda McEwen
President & Vice Chancellor
Victoria University at the University of Toronto

“It was great because we came out with actionable ideas. Our entire search was informed by the learnings from that TIDE workshop.”

Professor Greg Jamieson
Search Committee Chair
Mechanical & Industrial Engineering
