Creating Connections: Harnessing the power of mentorship

Join us for a celebration with mentors and mentees of the Graduate Mentorship Program. The program is a space for Black, Indigenous and racialized graduate students and faculty to network, build community and support students in achieving personal, professional and academic goals.

This second cohort embarked on a journey to explore their experiences and share their research interests through Art. Thanks to the support of community-engaged artists, Nimra Bandukwala and PhD student, annais linares, “Portals to the (Un)Known” is a collective expression of our individual experiences as Black, Indigenous and racialized researchers and artists, synthesizing our explorations of inner and outer knowledges.

The project is a nod to our increasingly diverse community and a reminder of our responsibility to create spaces that enrich learning and knowledge sharing beyond the academy.

We are grateful to have received funding from the Office of Diversity and Human Rights EDI Enhancement Fund and the CSAHS Dean's Office to make this program a success for the Univeristy.
