United for All Coalition, in collaboration with the City of Ottawa, would like to cordially invite you to participate in the virtual Anti-Racism in Ottawa Public Listening Forum. The virtual public forum will take place on Tuesday, July 28 from 1 to 3PM using a ZOOM virtual platform.
The virtual forum is intended to share a quick overview of the anti-racism work to date, listen to Black, Indigenous, and other racialized communities sharing their lived experiences, including the disproportionate impact of COVID-19 on racialized communities, and identify innovative and effective strategies to address racial inequities using an intersectional lens as we collectively move forward.
The forum will end with a discussion on next steps and concrete actions to address anti-racism in Ottawa.
An agenda and details of the ZOOM meeting will be emailed to all registered participants prior to the forum.
Accessibility Supports: Alternative formats and communications supports can be provided upon request. Please email accessibilityoffice@ottawa.ca for details.
If you have any questions about the City’s Anti-Racism Secretariat, please contact us at antiracism@ottawa.ca.
Simultaneous French translation, sign language interpretation (ASL and LSQ) and captioning will be provided for this event. Two counsellors (two African/Caribbean/Black Counsellors, one of whom speaks French, Spanish and Creole) will also be available during and after the event if participants require support.
