Tamarack’s Communities Ending Poverty hosted two conversations that explored how CEP members were developing, implementing, and centering anti-racist and equity frameworks in their anti-poverty work.
CEP member communities were asked to speak to the following:
How they began shifting mindsets to actively tackle anti-racism
What internal and external actions demonstrate their commitment to anti-racism and equity
How they created space to think outside of the box with new partners and to integrate new ideas into practice
What has worked well, what challenges were navigated, and what advice do they have to share?
The following organizations were included in this work:
Saskatoon Poverty Reduction Partnership
City of Vancouver
Alberni Clayoquot Health Network
Ville de Montréal service de la diversité et de l'inclusion sociale
Vibrant Communities Calgary
Wellbeing Waterloo Region
Winnipeg Poverty Reduction Council
