Integrating Head and Heart Human Rights Training Sessions

This is a specialized Pathways to Human Rights Education & Action training specifically designed for support staff

The Centre is proud to offer a customized Pathways to Human Rights Education & Action training designed specifically for support staff based on the feedback received in the Program and Services Review conducted by the Centre in 2018.

Support staff are welcome to register for any of the above listed Support Staff Customized human rights trainings as well as any of the generic open sessions – Pathways to Human Rights Education and Action trainings that are listed on the attached flyer. The Centre recognizes the challenges faced by Support Staff attending training during the academic year and has provided several dates to provide flexible options.

The Centre has recently launched Humber’s updated Human Rights Policy and Complaint Resolution Procedure. The Ontario Human Rights Commission requires that all employers provide ongoing education and training on the organization’s human rights policy. As such, all Humber employees (full-time, non-full time, work study) are required to update their knowledge of the Human Rights Policy and Complaint Resolution Procedure.

Please note: All Humber employees who have attended a Humber Human Rights Training session prior to August 2018, are required to refresh their knowledge of Humber’s Human Rights Policy & Complaint Resolution Procedure.

The first training is scheduled for Wednesday, July 31, 2019 from 9 a.m. to 12 p.m. at the North Campus – lunch will be provided.

Kindly email sacha.ally@humber.ca if you are support staff and you wish to register (registration is required if you wish to attend).

Join us for a short story reading and discussion with author Scott Colby as he discusses the importance of place and history in fiction writing. More Death in Etobicoke: The Silence of the Pigeons was 100 per cent inspired by living in south Etobicoke, especially during a deep freeze — the coldest month in recorded Toronto history. The story is satire and it pays tribute to two contemporary horror classics — in a hopefully humorous way — and also to some of the history of south Etobicoke.

Scott will perform a sure-to-be entertaining reading of his story and discuss why he was inspired to incorporate passenger pigeons into a contemporary story set in south Etobicoke. He will also discuss where the pigeon lives on today, through names and imagery in the area, and how technological advancements allowed for the killing of the pigeon on a massive scale and also led to the rise of modern horror stories.

The event is hosted by the Lakeshore Grounds Interpretive Centre, in partnership with the Friends of Sam Smith Park, the Citizens Concerned with the Future of the Etobicoke Waterfront (CCFEW), the Humber Arboretum, the Toronto Ornithological Club, and Quest Nature Tours.

Doors and Partner Booths open at 6:30 p.m.; talk begins at 7 p.m.

Light refreshments will be available.

Mobility accessible space.
