Kim Tavares guides the progress as UTS strives to create a greater culture of inclusion. She builds upon recommendations made by Dr. Avis Glaze O Ont in her 2022 report: Anti-Racism, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion: The Shared Responsibility.

Her role intersects with and impacts nearly every area of the academic program and operations.
