Update regarding the strike at Faculty of Law, McGill University, and Congress

4/25/2024

 
CLSA is planning to hold its annual conference at McGill during Congress, but the Faculty of Law is currently on strike. We support our colleagues in taking this work action. Significant planning has already gone into organizing our annual meeting, with over 150 members scheduled to attend. Under no circumstances can we cross a picket line; hopefully the strike will be resolved quickly. In case that it is not, we will move to an alternative venue. We are monitoring the situation closely and considering venues nearby McGill Faculty of Law. We are doing our best to keep our Annual Meeting as scheduled so as not to affect the ongoing travel arrangements of participants. We will post updates as more information is available. We do expect that other organizations may follow our lead in moving their meetings away from McGill.

Online survey regarding Research Ethics Review experiences and perceptions

3/20/2024

 
Dear Canadian Law and Society Members:
 
We hope this email finds you well. 
 
We are inviting you to participate in a 10-minute online survey for a research project titled, “Impact of Research Ethics Review on research design, teaching and learning in the Social Sciences and Humanities.”
 
There are many stories suggesting that concerns about real and perceived challenges in the research ethics process has affected scholars’ willingness to undertake research, including minimum risk research and the design of their projects, shaped the advice they provide students about graduate research projects, and limited student experiential learning opportunities in undertaking research. We wish to go beyond anecdote to get an empirical overview of the extent to which these concerns are common across the Social Sciences and Humanities. We seek to document and understand potential systemic impacts on Canadian research, teaching and learning.
 
To learn more, please go to our survey landing page to read the informed Consent Letter and, if you are willing, to begin the survey. Your participation is completely voluntary and you are free to skip any questions.
 
The deadline to complete this survey is April 30th, 2024. 
 
This study has been reviewed and received ethics clearance from the Wilfrid Laurier University Research Ethics Board (Approval 8793). Please contact Kelly Gallagher-Mackay ([email protected]) if you have further questions.

Thank you very much in advance,
 
Dr. Kelly Gallagher-Mackay, Associate Professor, Law and Society, Wilfrid Laurier University 
Dr. Karen L. Robson, Associate Professor of Sociology, McMaster University
