Diversity and Inclusion
In November 2017, Oshawa City Council accepted a final research report from a research collaboration agreement between the City of Oshawa and University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT) and was adopted in principle as the City's Diversity and Inclusion Plan. Thank you to everyone who provided feedback throughout the Plan's development. Your feedback provided valuable information to create strategies and key action items for the plan.
The approved Plan is a first step to Diversity and Inclusion work within the City and provides City Council and City staff with a strategic framework for this important work. City staff are currently in the process of developing an action and implementation plan. The action items will address the goals of fairness, justice and non-discrimination so that residents have equal access to employment opportunities, programs and services, as well as feel welcomed and involved within the community.
