Diversity Thunder Bay presents a Series of Zoom Workshops.

Diversity Thunder Bay is excited to announce the return of our successful speaker series,

Moving Forward with Reconciliation.

Our next event is 

Care and Responsibilities in Sponsorship Relationships

presented by Cynthia Nault, 

Wednesday December 7th from 12pm-1:30pm via Zoom.

Cynthia Nault will share with us about the nuances of special relationships between sponsors and the recipients of sponsorship and the continued harm being done by large corporations and their agents. We’ll review a brief history of colonization so far, why this is happening, and explore ways that everyday Canadians can interrupt this pattern of harm.
