We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge the traditional territories of the people of the Treaty 7 region in Southern Alberta. The City of Calgary is also home to Métis Nation of Alberta, Region III. The Werklund School of Education at the University of Calgary invites applications for a Canada Research Chair (CRC) Tier I in Pluralistic Societies: Transdisciplinarity, Cognitive Justice and Education. The successful candidate will be appointed at the rank of Professor (with tenure) and will be nominated for a CRC Tier I. The anticipated start date is July 1, 2024, or a mutual agreed upon date.

Globally, and locally, we are witnessing societies shaped by increasing human entanglements and social polarization. Pluralism in the city, what might be called pluralism from below, recognizes the need for an active engagement that creates a society of shared values, and peace and prosperity from a diversity of civilizations, cultures, peoples, groups, and entities. It addresses the wicked social challenges associated with super-diversity and hyper-diversity of our time: social disconnection, division, distrust, dehumanization, religious intolerance and political strife. Pluralism is inextricably concerned with depolarisation. It is fundamentally concerned with how to make diversity work so that we can live well together. It requires actively cultivating an understanding of different perspectives and facilitating how this multiplicity shapes social transformation for the better. Pluralism is what can emerge from relationship building and intercultural engagement, bridging divides, social healing, collaborative problem solving, and interfaith engagement. This context calls for a paradigm shift, for bold solutions, culture change, shifting values, norms, skills, behaviours, how we see ourselves and others, and how we see ourselves in relation to diverse others. The University of Calgary has been laying the groundwork toward a Pluralism Strategy for many years and is currently seeking to recruit a global leader in Transdisciplinarity, Cognitive Justice and Education. The Chair will:

  • Advance the intersection of transdisciplinarity, cognitive justice and education. They will develop a policy-relevant research agenda to foster transformation in the higher education sector, with the aim of creating a more inclusive education and societies that can confront the challenges of polarization facing human societies.
  • Advance transdisciplinarity, cognitive justice and education as an integral methodology for a reformulated epistemology that is necessary to support emerging local, national and global policy frameworks, and advance and protect plural knowledges and intellectual property rights.
  • Develop and advance terms and conditions for plural knowledges, and the integration of different forms of knowledge in higher education.
  • Foster transdisciplinary scholarship for systems transformation including in education, law, economics and science.

Additionally, the Chair will play an important role in teaching and research supervision of students in the Werklund School of Education undergraduate and graduate programs. Service to the department, faculty, University, and community is also expected.

The Chair will have the opportunity to be part of a prolific and diverse research environment in the Werklund School of Education, with access to state-of-the-art core infrastructure.

The successful candidate is a full professor and an outstanding and innovative world-class research which has made a major impact in their field. International recognition as a leader in their field, with evidence of leading a well-established research program as demonstrated by sustained peer-reviewed funding with evidence of collaboration, international presentations, peer-reviewed research publications that have established and influenced an area of research in their field and a superior track record in attracting and supervising graduate students and postdoctoral scholars. Strong service and/or leadership record and evidence of an excellent teaching record. Qualifications required include a Ph.D. in Social Science or equivalent. The applicant must also meet the criteria for a Canada Research Chair at the Tier I level.
