We would love to hear your perspectives as a *UBC Faculty of Medicine faculty member who identifies as a cis or trans woman, trans man or as Two Spirit, intersex, gender non-binary, agender, gender fluid or otherwise gender diverse. We are particularly interested in the perspectives of faculty members who also identify as Indigenous, Black, and People of Colour.
*UBC Faculty of Medicine faculty members include those individuals with a faculty appointment within the Faculty of Medicine: clinical faculty, full-time/academic/tenure track faculty, non-tenure track faculty, affiliate or honorary faculty, etc. This also includes faculty members at UNBC, UVic and UBC-O who are connected to and work within UBC contexts (e.g. Northern Medical Program).
Ways to Participate
There are several options for confidential and/or anonymous participation with our project:
(1) online open-ended survey (completely anonymous) OR
(2) individual or group# interview (confidentiality can be maintained for the public – you may choose to use a pseudonym or nickname during the interview) and/or
(3) participant forum (information coming at a later date).
Because we are striving to ensure that our sample is diverse across not just gender identity, racial/ethnic background, geography/location, faculty rank, career stage etc., but also other intersecting identities, regardless of the participation method you may select, you will be prompted to complete a short demographic survey. To protect your identity, demographic categories with fewer than five respondents will be suppressed and/or aggregated.
#This includes pre-existing groups that would like to schedule a group interview.
