Institutes for Resilient and Inclusive Societies and Ecosystems (iRISE)
The challenges of the current climate crisis, the health of our planet, 
the well-being of individuals and societies, and the inclusiveness and 
sustainability of local and global economies are deeply intertwined. The 
solution to these challenges is rarely linear and requires us to bring 
different kinds of knowledges and communities into dialogue. The 
Fulbright Canada Research Chairholder will be engaged in research that 
seeks to address these challenges by synthesizing scholarly thought from 
different disciplines to create collaborative solutions to the vexing 
problems of our time, in Canada and around the world.
iRISE: is a network of research institutes at the University of Toronto 
Scarborough (UTSC) comprised of three founding institutes: the Institute 
for Environment, Conservation and Sustainability; the Institute for 
Inclusive Health and Well-Being; and the Institute for Inclusive 
Economies and Sustainable Livelihoods. It also includes the Sustainable 
Development Goals (SDGs) Institutional Strategic Initiative, which 
supports transdisciplinary research engaged in understanding and 
implementing the SDGs established by the UN in 2015. Through its 
establishment of iRISE, UTSC affirms its commitment to convergence 
research that empowers communities and individuals, and informs future 
global goals for a just, equitable, inclusive, and sustainable future.
Specializations: Research should relate to sustainability, broadly 
understood, and match research priorities of the institutes and 
Initiatives within iRISE, including environment and climate change, 
poverty reduction, health inequities, and sustainable development.
