Equity Update
What We Did in 2025
Held ten all-staff equity learning sessions. This is an opportunity to engage with topics connected to the right to food and look at our work through a critical lens. Session highlights include:
Our introduction to harm reduction and Naloxone training session.
Hearing from MHA Lela Evans, who shared stories and experiences about food insecurity in her riding.
Thinking through developments in Artificial Intelligence (AI) broadly and for our work. Our first session covered ethical and human-centred considerations.
Met with Disability Advocacy organizations to see if there are spaces to support advocacy and how that might look
Incorporated equity session topics into our policy recommendations. Our ongoing discussions about Northern food insecurity and the Nutrition North program led to specific asks in our pre-budget submission.
What We Plan to Do in 2026
Continue having conversations about AI with our staff and other organizations. These conversations will coalesce into an AI policy or guidelines.
Revisit past topics and check in on how (or if) we’ve moved to implementation.
Continue following the leadership of Indigenous partners on the Federal Government’s campaign promise to overhaul the Nutrition North program.
Dig deeper into our understanding of anti-fat bias, and how we can incorporate body liberation and fat acceptance in our work.
