Anti-Racism Response Training (A.R.T) – Week 2 of 4

Program, developed by Dr. Ishu Ishiyama - recently adapted and enhanced, including virtual adaptation, by the facilitators - uses a witness-centered approach to disrupting racism. This training is designed to encourage participants to shift from being frozen or silent bystanders to becoming active witnesses. In doing so, we can disrupt racism and build a safer and more inclusive community. This 4-week training takes place every Wednesday in February. This week’s topic is Definitions, Language and Microaggressions. Pre-registration required through InVIU for employees. Students who wish to register should email Karen.BaxterThistle@viu.ca for more information.

This event is part of VIU’s celebration of Global Citizens Week. https://international.viu.ca/GCW
