About this event

On this International Day for Elimination of Racial Discrimination, in partnership with the Kitchener Waterloo Multicultural Centre, Immigration Partnership WR is hosting an event to showcase the breadth of the anti-racism work that needs your support and your voice to amplify it.

We aim to foster an unprejudiced, equitable, and anti-discriminatory culture. There is a strong need to call on each and every one of us to actively dismantle racial prejudice, intolerant attitudes, and systemic barriers.
