SEEDS for Change Learning Without Borders

As the founder and lead of SEEDS for Change, I steward politicized learning initiatives that transcend borders, integrating radical, innovative, and transformative approaches to education rooted in ancestral traditions predating recorded history. Through this work, I design and facilitate global learning experiences that center decolonial, anti-discriminatory, and land-based pedagogies.

Past offerings in this series have included courses delivered through the Ontario Institute for Studies in Education (OISE) at the University of Toronto, such as Anti-Discriminatory Education, Settler Colonialism and Pedagogies of Liberation, Indigenous Experiences of Racism in Canada, and Decolonization in Education, Popular Education, and Social Action.

This work has been made possible through dynamic collaboration with a diverse global network, including: the Center for Studies on Sustainable Luxury and the Sustainable Textile Center (Argentina), the DISE Collective, the Department of Modern Languages at Mount Allison University, the Global Classrooms at the University of Toronto, the bell hooks Center at Berea College, the Carousel Collective, Framingham State University, Unboxing Accessibility, University of Management and Technology (Pakistan), Manchester Metropolitan University (UK), the University of Toronto Scarborough, the School of Global, Urban and Social Studies at RMIT University (Australia), the Bilingual and Literacy Studies Department and the Mexican American Studies Program at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley, the Indigenous Educational Research Centre, the Deepening Knowledge Project (OISE), and York University.

With the support of these valued partners, SEEDS for Change continues to foster community-driven, justice-oriented, and globally resonant educational spaces, centering the stewardship of knowledge across generations, geographies, and ways of knowing.
