The 2023 Enhancing Equity in Ontario Elementary Education symposium invited participation by all Ontario district school boards, education stakeholders, and scholars focused on educational equity and human rights. The hybrid symposium included over 300 participants and created space for reflection and sharing of promising practices around equity-based initiatives, in support of enhanced equity for elementary school students.
To promote further mobilization of the ideas and resources that were shared at the symposium, several outputs have been created, including panel summaries and podcasts with transcripts. Podcasts were generated based on panel discussions, conversations that took place at our onsite voicEd Radio Speaker’s Corner and with others post-symposium. Podcast topics include:
- Equity for Black Students
- Equity for Students who are Black, Indigenous, and People of Colour
- Equity for Disabled Students
- Equity for 2SLGBTQIA+ Students
- Equity for Indigenous Students
- Equity for Students Living in Low Sociodemographic Neighbourhoods
