Dear Members of the Faculties of Forestry and Land and Food Systems,
As some of you may know, UBC has launched an application process for a Black Faculty Cohort Hiring Initiative:
https://academic.ubc.ca/faculty-careers/black-faculty-cohort-hiring-initiative
The Faculty of Forestry and the Faculty of Land and Food Systems see this as an important initiative and opportunity to recruit excellent scholars into our programs. We are in the process of developing a joint application in the interdisciplinary area of Food-Forest-(Bio)Fuels. With apologies for the short notice, we would like to invite Black students, staff and faculty in both Faculties to join us for an open house to discuss the initiative and our joint application.
