Gindin Chair
Welcome!
The CAW-Sam Gindin Chair in Social Justice and Democracy is the first union-endowed chair at a Canadian University.
The mandate of the chair is to create a hub of interaction between social justice activists and academics at Ryerson University.
Well-known journalist, author and activist Judy Rebick is the first (and current) person appointed as chair. This is a cross-appointment in Politics and Social Work.
