Join the Maine Development Foundation for this afternoon event! The City of Vancouver, Canada has been ranked as one of the greenest cities in the world, a youthful city, and a city of Reconciliation that has adopted the UN Declaration for the Rights of Indigenous People. Women have played a pivotal role in governing and transforming Vancouver by fostering collaborative action, educating and holding space for youth voices and action, and redefining what it means to be a city on unceded indigenous land. In this interactive session we will meet some of these women and learn how they are building enduring change by advancing intersectionality, equity, justice and civic resilience.
