IDAHAT CELEBRATION

 

International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia & Biphobia Celebration

Burnaby’s District SOGI Committee is hosting an incredible online event that will be available for staff, students, and their families to view. It will take place on Monday, May 17th from 4:00 – 5:30 via Zoom. Speakers from the LGBTQ+ community will share thoughts and experiences on the theme of “Queer Visibility.” There is no registration required and you can tune in to the Zoom presentation using the first SharePoint link below!

Last year we hosted this event virtually with a variety of speakers exploring the theme of “Community.” Sharing excerpts to facilitate meaningful conversations in classrooms is one of the ways in which educators are using some of the content.
