Black presence
Black Presence
Concordia’s Black Presence Hub is a space where Black students, faculty and staff can access culturally relevant resources, services and more. It’s intended to foster flourishing, support, community, and knowledge sharing, both on and off campus.
In the spotlight

May 7 - Curated by Adam Mbowe, the screening brings together short films by Montréal-based filmmakers and artists, Badewa Ajibade, Izak Vaillancourt, Jean Bastien Niyigaruye, Kourtney Jackson, Laura Kamugisha, and Yves Lazarre, exploring shifting ideas of home and inheritance. Details here.
Mastering the Art of Research Proposals – Workshops
May 15 & 22: Two Interactive and collaborative workshops aimed at supporting graduate students from underrepresented communities develop strong proposals and prepare applications for upcoming funding competitions at Concordia. Details and registration.
Black identity and presence
The term “Black” is used throughout the hub as an identifier that unifies the identities and experiences of Black, sub-Saharan African, Afro-descendant, and Afro-diasporic communities.
Members of these communities may or may not use the word “Black” as their identifier and may or may not bear visible markers from these communities.
Join us in celebrating Black excellence and fostering a supportive and inclusive campus at Concordia.
