Join in the conversation

WITS Programs Foundation will be developing new programming that will create more inclusive and accepting environments in classrooms. To aid and inform the design and development process, the WITS team will be hosting facilitated group discussions (Focus Groups) across Canada, and inviting educators to share their experiences and ideas through a series of design conversations.

Insights from a cross-section of educators right across the country will help us to better formulate a new set of practical tools that encourage children to accept and include others who may be different from themselves.

Decide which of these dates work for you and if you can join in person, please do! All events are free to attend, AND we’ll be providing dinner for participants of the in-person sessions!
