At the Waterloo Region District School Board (WRDSB), we're moving our commitment to building a culture of human rights from words to action through an initiative that Ministry of Education staff in attendance praised as being the first-of-its-kind in Ontario to bring together Trustees, senior staff, union, professional association leaders and senior management for focused learning about Human Rights.
In October and November 2023, Trustees and staff came together for four days of learning with experts from a range of fields that touched on human rights in public education. We were pleased to be joined by colleagues from the Waterloo Catholic District School Board to share in the learning.
