EDI at Volt-Age
Volt-Age is committed to advancing innovative and inclusive research by embedding Equity, Diversity and Inclusion (EDI) principles into all aspects of academic research.
By placing EDI at the heart of our mission to support impactful research on electrification, we aim to help ensure that societal changes underway, including the transition to clean energy, benefit all communities, particularly those from equity-seeking groups.
Our action plan
We are embedding Equity, Diversity and Inclusion across all aspects of our research, governance and partnerships. Grounded in best practices, this living document prioritizes addressing systemic barriers and will evolve through collaboration, feedback and new ideas.
EDI resources
We have curated a list of resources from organizations like SSHRC, NSERC, and CIHR to provide guidance on integrating EDI principles into research design and practice.
