"In recognition of the International Human Rights Day, we will host a two-day hybrid event that aims to combat hate, promote inclusion, and foster understanding among diverse communities. The event will feature a combination of educational sessions, interactive activities, and community showcases. The event will include a combination of panel discussions, keynote addresses and a documentary film screening on real life incidents and experiences of hate and racism in Canada.
Day one of the event will be held online, leveraging our platform to reach a broader audience across multiple provinces. Day two will be held in-person in Vancouver, offering a more intimate and engaging experience for participants, with the option for virtual participants to dial in on day two. This hybrid approach ensures consistent, high-quality event delivery to diverse communities across Canada.
According to Public Safety Canada, Canada continues to experience high rates of community tension, hate crimes, and violence in both global and domestic contexts. Police-reported hate crimes increased by 7%, from 3,355 incidents in 2021 to 3,576 in 2022, following a 72% increase between 2019 and 2021. These incidents, which primarily target Muslim, Jewish, and Black populations, remain above the ten-year average."
