May 23, 2019 –

Please join us for a presentation by the 2018-2019 OceanPath fellows.

 

 

During their yearlong fellowship, each fellow designed and implemented an initiative in a chosen community. Now, they will present on their experience, learning, and impact.

A few examples of fellows’ work and impact:

> Kishore has created curriculum and partnered with the state government to improve educational outcomes for thousands of schoolchildren in Tamil Nadu

> Cam has developed a mobile app that provides pre- and post-operative information to patients, which helps physicians deliver better care and improve surgical outcomes

> Kathleen has developed a one-of-its-kind culturally relevant environmental conservation curriculum for Maasai schoolchildren, which has been translated into Maa for optimal uptake

> Corrina has formed a not-for-profit which now employs several local women to produce low-cost and environmentally friendly sanitary pads for women in Gujarat

St. Francis Xavier University and Coady Institute stand on the lands of Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded home of the Mi’kmaw. We express our deep gratitude and appreciation to the generations of Mi’kmaw who, since time immemorial, have loved and stewarded these lands and the beings who call them home. Colonization is not just history; it exists in the present tense. While we strive to decolonize ourselves and our University, we know there is still much for us to learn.

We are committed to doing the hard work of self-reflection and to repairing relationships with the Mi’kmaw on whose lands we reside, including embracing the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada Calls to Action and embodying their spirit in our plans to move forward with our University.
