Connect the
Research to your
Context

Interactive Sessions

Description: 60 minute interactive presentation tailored to connect research to your context. All BSO reports are available for download here.

Organizations looking to further accelerate their anti-Black racism and equity work will also want to see our Tier 3 offerings in the Execute Actionable Plans section.


Objectives

  • Explore research findings as they connect to certain subject areas that are particularly relevant to your team, department or organization. For example:
    • Recognizing and tackling tokenism on the screen and beyond. 
    • Working with decision-makers to identify gaps in cultural knowledge that lead to questioning the relevance and under-resourcing  of Black-led projects.
    • The importance of calibrating the distribution of audience measurement instruments to capture urban centres where 50+% of Black, Indigenous and People of Colour Canadians live.
  • Engage in critical inquiry about what the findings mean, and how the report can be used to inform action.
  • Consider how you can be an agent of change (i.e., explore what you can do).
