30 Jul '24

[cid:image001.png@01DAE266.A4AB9220] Message from Dr. B. Mario Pinto, Vice-President (Research and International) [A blue background with white text Description automatically generated] Dear UM Community, I’m pleased to share with you Change Through Research: University of Manitoba Strategic Research Plan 2024-2029<https://umanitoba.ca/research/strategic-research-plan>. This bold plan outlines our key areas of expertise for maximum impact by providing solutions to society’s most pressing challenges. The plan outlines seven themes that will guide UM research over the next five-year period: * Foundations * Social Justice and Human Rights * Research by, for, and with Indigenous Peoples * Water and Food Security * Health and Well-Being * Climate Action and Sustainability * Manitoba, Hudson Bay, Arctic and the World These interconnected themes will promote the overarching mission of transforming research culture, advancing understanding and creating positive societal impact. We have set ambitious goals to position UM researchers as leaders in new and critical areas, including being in the Top 200 in the world and the Top 10 in Canada in the Center for World University Rankings, in the top 251-300 in the Times Higher Education Rankings and in the top 100 in the Times Higher Education Impact Rankings. Informed by community consultations, the plan aligns with the institutional strategic plan MomentUM: Leading Change Together<https://umanitoba.ca/sites/default/files/2024-04/university-of-manitoba-str…>, and the draft Truth and Reconciliation Framework: Time for Action (2024-29)<https://umanitoba.ca/sites/default/files/2024-06/truth-and-reconciliation-f…>. Thank you to the hundreds of researchers, innovators, staff, students and the Strategic Research Plan Committee for helping to shape this document. With your valuable input, we have formulated an innovative plan that builds on a strong disciplinary foundation and embraces inter- and multi-disciplinary expertise in new ways as we explore bold ventures at home and around the world. I look forward to seeing you when we gather this fall in person to launch the new plan. More details about the event and how you can participate will follow in the coming weeks. In the meantime, please take some time this summer to review the plan and envision your part in the future of UM research. Sincerely, [A drawing of a person on a sled Description automatically generated] B. Mario Pinto Vice-President (Research and International)

Peaceful end to the encampment
by Provost's Office 15 Jul '24

15 Jul '24

The following message is being sent on behalf of Dr. Diane Hiebert-Murphy, Provost and Vice-President (Academic). [cid:image003.jpg@01DAD6B3.170ED8F0] Message from Dr. Diane Hiebert-Murphy, Provost and Vice-President (Academic) [cid:image001.jpg@01DAD6B2.9B881340] July 15, 2024 Dear UM community, Following a message to encampment participants<https://news.umanitoba.ca/um-leaderships-message-to-students-for-justice-in…> on Tuesday, the encampment has now been peacefully dismantled. UM will make any necessary repairs to the landscaping in order to return the Quad to the community for regular use. UM leadership is committed to supporting a welcoming campus environment for all students and community members. We respect the right to peaceful assembly in ways that do not infringe upon the right to access public space by other student groups or impede the functioning of the university, including unauthorized occupation of university property. As we move forward, we remind everyone to demonstrate kindness and compassion with one another, and to appreciate the diversity of our community. Universities must remain places for meaningful and respectful debate, and UM is committed to serving as a space to explore complex issues of local and global importance. We understand that events can impact members of our community in different ways and encourage anyone who needs to talk or seek support to reach out to our counseling services, which are available to all students<https://umanitoba.ca/student-supports/student-health-and-wellness> and employees<https://umanitoba.ca/wellness-and-mental-health>. Sincerely, [cid:image004.jpg@01DAD6B3.170ED8F0] Diane Hiebert-Murphy, PhD, CPsych Provost and Vice-President (Academic)

Share your feedback on UM's Truth and Reconciliation Framework
by Jeff Leclerc 04 Jul '24

04 Jul '24

A message from Angie Bruce, Vice-President (Indigenous) and Jeff Leclerc, University Secretary. We are excited to share the Truth and Reconciliation Framework: Time for Action - 2024-2029 (PDF)<https://umanitoba.ca/sites/default/files/2024-06/truth-and-reconciliation-f…>. Informed by community consultations and MOMENTUM: Leading Change Together 2024-2029<https://umanitoba.ca/strategic-plan>, this draft framework outlines the vision, mission and shared values, which has guided the Reconciliation Advisory Committee in its work. Before the Reconciliation Advisory Committee moves forward with presenting the final framework to Senate and the Board of Governors for approval, we invite you to read and share your feedback on this important document. This framework will guide our shared work over the next five years. We want to ensure that it resonates and that the diversity of voices and perspectives that strengthen our UM community are reflected in the framework. Using the Indigenous Senior Leadership Report and Recommendations<https://umanitoba.ca/about-um/vice-president-indigenous/engaging-community-…> and the MOMENTUM: Leading Change Together 2024-2029<https://umanitoba.ca/strategic-plan> plan as guides, the Truth and Reconciliation Framework provides the high-level context to champion a university-wide Reconciliation Implementation Plan in 2025, which will drive UM's commitment of advancing the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada's Calls to Action and integrating Indigenous ways of knowing into what we do. The draft framework is now available on the UM website <https://umanitoba.ca/about-um/um-truth-and-reconciliation-framework> and an online form<https://umanitoba.ca/about-um/truth-and-reconciliation-framework-feedback-f…> is available to provide your thoughts. The form will be available until Friday, July 12, 2024 at 4 p.m. CST and will take approximately 10-15 minutes to complete. The Reconciliation Advisory Committee will be presented with your feedback to inform the final document. Thank you for the time and energy you have given to help us develop this draft. We look forward to receiving your feedback. Miigwech. Thank you. Angie Bruce, Vice-President (Indigenous) Jeff Leclerc, University Secretary

The following message is being sent on behalf of Dr. Diane Hiebert-Murphy, Provost and Vice-President (Academic). [cid:image001.png@01DAA2DC.FE8E62A0] Hello UM community, Late last week, we learned that Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) was planning a protest encampment at the Fort Garry campus on May 7-9. Student Affairs and Security Services both immediately reached out to SJP to discuss the expectation that the event remain peaceful. Since the start of the protest on Tuesday morning, Security Services has been on site to monitor the situation and ensure a safe environment. Although SJP publicly communicated their intention to remove the encampment as planned, tents remained last night, and a protest continues today. There are now also plans for outside groups to protest at the Fort Garry campus on Saturday, which has resulted in the very unfortunate cancellation of Science Rendezvous. Please visit UM Today<https://news.umanitoba.ca/encampment-protest-updates/> for more information and updates as they become available. We understand that events can impact members of our community in different ways and encourage anyone who needs to talk or seek support to reach out to our counseling services, which are available to all students<https://umanitoba.ca/student-supports/student-health-and-wellness> and employees<https://umanitoba.ca/wellness-and-mental-health>.
