Join Humber's Black Student Support and Engagement for the the Black Heritage Month Opening Ceremony.
This year’s Black Heritage Month theme celebrates the power of Black storytelling as a source of identity, belonging, and community connection. Black Brilliance: Stories that Shape Us centers the personal, cultural, historical, and future-focused narratives that influence Black learning, creativity, and community at Humber and beyond. By honouring the stories we carry and the stories we create, this theme invites our community to reflect, learn, and engage more deeply with the richness, depth, and brilliance of Black experiences.

Sustainability is the intrinsic value of preserving our collective future through education and action facing a climate crisis. By applying sustainable practices, diverse worldviews, and equity principles to our work, teaching approach, and strategic frameworks, we practice Mino Nawendiwin – the Anishinaabe (Ojibwe) concept of good, reciprocal relationships with land, animals, plants, and one another. There is no sustainability without equity.
