Amanda McKenzie, Director, Office of Academic Integrity, University of Waterloo, recently co-authored a chapter published in the Handbook of Academic Integrity.
In this chapter the development of academic integrity leadership in Canada is examined through the lenses of asset-based community development and strengths-based leadership. Examples are provided from international, national, and regional perspectives that highlight how the work of promoting academic integrity can be undertaken successfully in a geographically large country with a decentralized system of higher education. A core argument of this chapter is that a strengths-based approach to academic integrity community development and leadership can be effective in situations where top-down support (e.g., federal ministry of education or a national quality assurance body) is lacking.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
