The Harbour, QHS's EDIIA Podcast

The Harbour is Queen’s Health Sciences (QHS) new destination for conversations on issues related to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, Indigeneity, and Accessibility (EDIIA).

Hosted by Celina Caesar-Chavannes, Senior Advisor, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusivity (EDI) Initiatives, the podcast features a variety of guests – from student leaders to EDIIA researchers to faculty leaders like Dean Jane Philpott and Colleen Davison, Associate Dean, Equity and Social Accountability.

Episode 1 - Holidays

Certain statutory holidays in Canada align Christian religious days of observation. Christmas. Good Friday. Caesar-Chavannes, medical student Suffia Malik, and Dean Philpott discuss how our growingly diverse community at Queen's can be better supported to observe religious and cultural dates that are often overlooked.

Episode 5 - Cancel Culture

What is deemed an (un)acceptable act? Who gets to decide what is an (un)acceptable act? How do we respond to cancel culture and social accountability?

Episode 6 - Labels

We have a need to categorize and group people into specific labels based on self-identified and imposed identities. Caesar-Chavannes, Medical student Ryan Truong (QHS Outreach and Summer Program coordinator) and accessibility researcher Mahadeo Sukhai (Department of Ophthalmology), unpack the labelling of individuals and groups and how we navigate through power structures with these identities.
