Camosun College values diversity as a strength and strives to be an equitable and inclusive
college community of students and employees. The College is an Equal Opportunity
Employer that adheres to the BC Human Rights Code which protects against
discrimination based on Indigenous identity, race, colour, ancestry, place of origin, religion,
marital status, family status, physical and mental disability, sex, sexual orientation, gender
identity or expression, or age. The College also recognizes and honors UNDRIP, the TRC
Calls to Actions and the BC Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples’ Act. Going

recognize that moving towards more equitable communities is an ongoing and evolving
journey – one which the College is committed to undertaking. Since Camosun plays an
