The Intergenerational and Intercultural Diversity and Inclusion Engagement Project is a two-year federally funded initiative (July 2022 through March 2024) designed to help members from various cultural communities in Manitoba have their voices be heard through engagements, events, and storytelling that are socially, culturally, and psychologically safe.
These community engagements are designed to give community members the opportunity to influence change, and connect with other community members and policy makers to help address issues related to social justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (J.E.D.I.).
