CANADIAN ASSOCIATION OF UNIVERSITY TEACHERS (CAUT)

As the national voice of 68,000 academic and general staff at more than 120 universities and colleges across Canada, CAUT lobbies governments, provides collective bargaining and legal support, and actively advances the social and economic interests of its members. In addition, CAUT offers courses, workshops and conferences, investigates threats to academic freedom, undertakes extensive research, publishes reports, newsletters, books and a monthly newspaper, liaises with Canada’s media, and works in national and international academic coalitions. They work to safeguard the freedom of our members to teach and conduct research unrestricted by commercial or other special interests, and perhaps most importantly, CAUT works for collegial institutional governance that is publicly accountable.
