Seeking input on the progress of NSERC and SSHRC’s joint accessibility plan

The Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada (NSERC) and Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) invite you to share your feedback on the steps we have taken to remove accessibility barriers since January 2026.

In December, the agencies published the NSERC-SSHRC Joint Accessibility Plan for 2026-2028 on the NSERC and SSHRC websites. We encourage input on our progress, especially from members of NSERC’s and SSHRC’s research communities who have one or more disabilities. The responses will be kept confidential and anonymous. The feedback will help inform the annual accessibility progress report, which will be published on each agency’s website by the end of 2026.

The survey will remain open until 11:59 pm eastern, Sunday, August 16, 2026.
