The Ontario Confederation of University Faculty Associations (OCUFA) is a Canadian non-profit organization that represents 16,000 teachers, researchers, and librarians through its interaction with the Ontario government, opposition parties, related agencies, and associations. OCUFA also allows its twenty-six member faculty associations to coordinate media relations and research for collective bargaining. OCUFA also publishes Academic Matters, a quarterly journal that covers higher education topics across Canada, and a monthly electronic newsletter, Ontario University Report, with specific content for Ontario members. OCUFA maintains a separate website for advocacy entitled Quality Matters and provides members with a discount program named Edvantage.
