Beautifully brilliant opening keynote by IshaKhan: "The systems in w/c I work need to value me & the intersections of who I am as a unique individual. The empowerment of women comes from challenging the current power systems that exist." #WWC2023

Systems change at the mic. IshaKhan says we are all responsible to disrupt & change systems 🐢 #Debwewin #truthbombs Hanging w the best disrupters & change makers today Dorota Blumczyńska #WWC2023

It has been a week of storytelling, but how very special to be invited by our LG, the Honourable Anita Neville, to do so in her home. Thanks to all who came out!🙏🏽

"The museum is a platform to share stories, to create belonging. It's about relationships, human rights & it's about community." Canadian Museum for Human Rights held a public engagement session to help inform their new strategic plan: Our Path Forward. Lots of great discussions & lots of work to do.
