Our Schools, Our Communities
A vital conversation on Equity, Inclusion, Social Justice and the possibilities for change
On Friday June 6, 2008 over 80 educators, parents, community workers, students and community activists gathered at Harbourfront Community Centre to share ideas and discuss concerns around issues of diversity and inclusion in schools. "Our Schools, Our Communities" is part of an ongoing series of learning exchanges offered by the Ontario Inclusion Learning Network (OILN).

"It's native kids on this side, white kids on that side, and no one crosses the line or else."
Our mission is to create innovative solutions to meet community challenges and build strong, equitable and sustainable communities through education, engagement and collaboration
