Creating Inclusive Workplace Policies and Strategies 
October 14 (Thurs) | 3:30 - 4:30 pm

In this workshop, organizations will learn about key components and strategies to building inclusive policies and how to embed inclusion into practice. The workshop will use intersectionality and equity, diversity and inclusion lenses in developing policies and embedding practices.

This workshop will be facilitated by Ismaël Traoré, PhD, who is a racial diversity, equity and inclusion educator, researcher and specialist. At the heart of his work is cultural and organizational change through evidence-based practices. He is interested in issues of power and privilege, cultural competency, and multicultural organizational development. Dr. Traoré has co-produced a documentary with Dr. Lisa Watt titled “Hamilton’s Ugly Underbelly: Racism” (2015). This educational film documents contemporary forms of racism, activism, and community healing in Hamilton, Ontario.

Active Witnessing (Bystander) Webinar

October 28 at 1:30pm to 4:00pm | Active Bystander Training uses a witness-centered approach to disrupting racism and is designed to encourage participants to shift from being frozen or silent bystanders to becoming active witnesses. In doing so, we can disrupt racism and build a safer and more inclusive community.  This webinar is co-facilitated by Thanh Tazumi, Naomi Wolfe and Toyin Kareem.

Explore four key categories of active witnessing, and learn and practice a wide range of anti-racism responses and share some of your own in this interactive training for the whole community.

 The Zoom link will be sent to all those who register by October 27 at 1:30pm.
