Pathways to Community Safety

How do we react to harm within our own communities? What actions can individuals and communities take to interrupt harmful, aggressive or violent behaviour, without resorting to tactics that disproportionately impact structurally marginalized communities?

Join us to learn alongside speakers who will share about the practices or policies they use to navigate these situations.

Speakers:

• Charissa Seng, Head & Hands
• Lyn Black, Indigenous Support Workers Project
• Christine Menendez, Amal Women Centre 
• Christophe Lewis, Freedom is a Must

Please note - this event is held in person, at the SHIFT space.  If, for accessibility reasons, you are not able to join in person but would like to attend the event, please contact shift@concordia.ca and we can work together to see if an alternative solution is possible. A week’s notice will give us the best chance of making something work.

SHIFT Pathways Series: As part of our mandate to facilitate collaboration across difference and host a welcoming space for difficult conversations, SHIFT hosts the Pathways Skill Share series to bring together speakers from across Montreal to exchange about the concrete challenges of turning principles of social transformation into practice.
