Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin was
awarded the inaugural Simone de Beauvoir
Prize!
The Simone de Beauvoir Institute Prize. which recognizes women who are building a world
dedicated to gender equality and social justice, was awarded to Chief Justice Beverley McLachlin
in March of 2017. As the longest serving chief justice in Canada’s history, McLachlin has ruled on
cases that have reshaped key societal issues, including Indigenous rights, sex work and assisted
suicide.
The C-FAR (Critical Feminist Activism in Research) project out the SdBI is a community-building,
research and training initiative emerging from an intersectional feminist framework anchored in
anti-racist and anti-oppressive approaches to equity, inclusion and representation on campus and
across communities. C-FAR is a project that welcomes everyone while appreciating that the issues
that we face, the concerns and values that we have, and our visions for our many futures, are
particular, varied and oftentimes untranslatable. C-FAR does not strive for a united transformation
of Concordia into one singular feminist collective or community, we rather hope to foster various
networks of support and resources to promote a multi-directional series of intersectional feminist
projects of different scales, with different goals, each addressing its own particular needs with its
own potential for transformative power at an institutional and systemic level. In speaking and working
with each other across our difference, we hope to begin a reimagining of how our university works
and who it works for in order to foster a non-binary learning space that is intentionally inclusive and
accessible, anti-racist and anti-colonial, one that is getting closer to that better-world we are thinking
about, working towards and hoping for.
C-FAR co-coordinators, Annick MF, Meghan Gagliardi, and Finn Purcell have organized numerous
events over the 2016/17 academic year.

leading feminist theorists of the twentieth century, and her essays and books have inspired
feminist scholarship around the world. Thanks to a generous donation from the Renée B.
Fisher Foundation and the work and vision of the Foundation Board Member Dr. Shelly
Fisher Fishkin from Stanford University, the Simone de Beauvoir Institute has created a
visiting scholars program as a living memorial to Lillian Robinson.
The Lillian Robinson Scholar Program is designed to attract distinguished visiting scholars
working on a range of feminist research topics to the Simone de Beauvoir Institute. The
program supports stays of varying lengths for scholars with a PhD. The program provides a
small stipend of $1000. Four Lillian Robinson Scholars visited our Institute in the last two years.

consensus and add our voices to a large number of academic associations and

The Simone de Beauvoir Institute recognizes that the issue of BDS raises many
questions, and sparks heated debate. As feminist educators and students, we
promote open dialogue and an educational approach to understanding the issues.

implications, as well as a list of resources for further reading, can be found on our website:

On June 6, 2016, Concordia Professor Dr. Homa Hoodfar was arrested and held in Iran’s
notorious Evin prison on ambigious charges including “dabbling in feminism”. In September
of the same year the SdBI held a press conference calling for the Canadian government
to work with every tool at its disposal to ensure Prof. Hoodfar’s immediate release
from prison and her return to Canada.
From time to time, the SdBI gets directly involved in debates Dr. Homa Hoodfar was released and returned to Canada on September 26, 2016
