The Anti-Racism & Cultural Diversity Office (ARCDO) and the University of Toronto is committed to supporting faculty, staff and students in the tri-campus community and responding to the needs of campus communities experiencing racism and religious discrimination through diverse programming and resources. We are aware of the complexities and nuances in discussions surrounding faith, discrimination and racial equity. However, we recognize the equal importance of providing an opportunity for the U of T community to hold these important dialogues.
Through this event, ARCDO hopes to deepen knowledge and advance the ongoing institutional work around faith, anti-racism and educational strategies, that is aligned with (but not limited to) the work of the Anti-Racism Strategic Tables.
