This week is Transgender Awareness Week. Each year, people and organizations around the country participate in Trans Awareness Week to help raise visibility surrounding transgender people and address issues members of the community face.

This week and everyday it is important to focus our attention and awareness on the experiences of transgender and non binary individuals through the lens of education and advocacy.

Hello everyone! Happy Eid al-Adha!

Good morning all!

Today, July 18th, is Nelson Mandela International day. Today is used to recognize Mandela's birthday. On July 18th, 2009, the U.N. General Assembly chose to recognize Mandela due to his call for action asking the next generation to "take on the burden of leadership in addressing the world's social injustices." Mandela said, "It is in your hands now." Today is meant as a celebration for his life and legacy to honor all that he did to change the world.

Let us collectively use today to reflect on Nelson Mandela. Please see the link provided to read Mandela's biography and explore the Nelson Mandela Foundation.

We are a non-profit organisation focused on dialogue and advocacy, and memory and legacy work, founded by Nelson Mandela in 1999.
