University of Ottawa
The Institute of Feminist and Gender Studies of the Faculty of Social Sciences is seeking to fill a regular faculty position that focuses on contemporary Indigenous issues, including those related to Indigenous resistance and/or resurgence, two-spirit and queer studies, decolonial and anti-colonial critiques, and transnational perspectives.

The hiring for this position will be done in accordance with the University’s initiatives to combat systemic racial discrimination as announced by the University President in January 2021, which aim among other things, to remedy the under-representation of racialized peoples and Indigenous peoples within the ranks of its faculty members. As such, only applications from Indigenous peoples will be considered and evaluated for the position. Those who wish to be considered as part of this group are asked to self-identify by completing the confidential questionnaire at the time of submitting an application.
