The Canadian Association for the Prevention of Discrimination and Harassment in Higher Education(CAPDHHE) was founded in 2000. CAPDHHE evolved from Canadian Association Against Sexual Harassment in Higher Education(CAASHHE). CAASHHE itself evolved from the Natonal Conference on Sexual Harassment Association(NCOSHA), which was founded in 1984 to provide an annual conference concerning sexual harassment in institutions of higher education in Canada. The founding institutions were the University of Calgary, the University of Alberta and York University. In 1999 it was recognized that many members were addressing various forms of discrimination and harassment and the mandate of the association needed to be expanded. CAPDHHE was founded to express that larger mandate. It is a bilingual association. 1, record 2, English, - Canadian%20Association%20for%20the%20Prevention%20of%20Discrimination%20and%20Harassment%20in%20High%20Education

L'Association a été fondée en 2000 et s'est développée à partir de l'Association canadienne contre le harcèlement sexuel en milieu d'éducation supérieure (ACCHSES); celle-ci, de son côté a été créée à partir de la Conférence nationale sur le harcèlement sexuel (CNHS), fondée en 1984 dans le dessein spécifique d'organiser une conférence annuelle sur le harcèlement sexuel dans les institutions d'éducation supérieure au Canada. Les institutions fondatrices étaient les Universités de Calgary et de l'Alberta et l'Université York. En 1999, nous avons constaté que plusieurs membres devaient s'adresser à des types de discrimination et de harcèlement fort variés et que, pour cette raison, nous avions besoin d'élargir le mandat de l'association. ACPDHMES, une association bilingue, a été fondée pour répondre à ce mandat élargi. 1, record 2, French, - L%27Association%20canadienne%20pour%20la%20pr%C3%A9vention%20de%20la%20discrimination%20et%20ou%20harc%C3%A8lement%20en%20milieu%20d%27enseignement%20sup%C3%A9rieur
