Groupes prioritaires

Nous savons que les barrières systémiques se manifestent différemment d’une communauté à l’autre, et qu’aucune liste ne peut rendre compte de toutes les personnes qui méritent l’équité. Cette année, nous accorderons la priorité aux candidatures de personnes issues de groupes qui demeurent nettement sous-représentés au sein de l’ACPDP :

Peuples autochtones : communautés des Premières Nations, inuites et métisses

Communautés noires et racisées, y compris les communautés africaines, caribéennes, sud-asiatiques, est-asiatiques et d’autres communautés qui font face à des barrières raciales

Personnes en situation de handicap, y compris les handicaps visibles et invisibles

Professionnels trans et de la diversité de genre

Si vous faites face à des barrières financières ou systémiques à la participation et que votre communauté ne figure pas ci-dessus, nous vous encourageons tout de même à présenter une candidature. Le comité des bourses du congrès de l’ACPDP examine chaque candidature, en accordant la priorité aux communautés énumérées ci-dessus
