The work of the Anti-Racism & Equity committee is two-fold: |
| a) |
The committee engages members in anti-racist education. |
| b) |
The committee addresses gender equity and disability issues,
as well as issues which impact Aboriginal, bisexual, gay, lesbian, and
transgender members. |
| This committee will aspire to: |
|

|
Assist in the funding of members who have an interest in
conferences/workshops that support the efforts of this committee. |
|
Support members with various committee related initiatives in the Board. |
|
Educate members about cultural, racial, ethnic and religious
diversity within the education community and society. |
|
Promote teaching as a career for under-represented groups in society. |
|
Provide strategies to ensure that all Peel Local activitiesare inclusive. |
|
Encourage the development of bias-free curriculum materials.
|
|
Hold an annual dinner to recognize and commemorate the International Day
for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. |
| There is much to do, and all members are encouraged to get
involved. If you would like to be a part of any of these initiatives or share
