We are all future ancestors.
How can we make an impact now?

This keynote conversation,“Three Skills to Advance Reconciliation and Solidarity’ will explore how we can build our capacity (today!) to ethically and sustainably contribute to reconciliation and solidarity within and between communities. Tangible tools and practices will be shared with the purpose of empowering the participants to reflect and articulate the value and wisdom they carry, regardless of age, status, or education.

Larissa Crawford, York U alumni 2022 ‘One to Watch’ awardee and Founder of Future Ancestors Services, will be delivering this presentation in dedication of her two beloved mentors and accelerators of anti-racist change at York University, Dr. Lorne Foster and Ruth Green. In an effort to humanize and exemplify the three skills explored, Larissa will weave storytelling from her +14 years of experience in anti-racism and Indigenous research, policy, and community engagement.

  • Passionate about community engagement and looking to strengthen your decolonization practices
