Building an Anti-Racist City



The Calgary Public Library, ActionDignity, and Habitus Collective are hosting a panel discussion event with key leaders which will contribute to the development of a Calgary Community Anti-Racism Action Strategy for The City of Calgary.

Makda Habtegergesa - Strategist, anti-racism content developer, advocate.


Moderated by Anne-Marie Pham - Executive Director of the Canadian Centre for Diversity and Inclusion (CCDI)
