Join the Faith & the Common Good and EnviroMuslims teams for an afternoon dedicated to sharing the success stories of Faith communities across the Greater Toronto Area as they work to implement sustainability projects within their communities.
Event highlights will include:
- Announcements of funding/support available to faith groups
- A youth panel highlighting how faiths inspire youth to take climate action
- How faith groups can organize places of worship to support the community during climate disasters (flooding, heatwaves, etc.)
- A tour of the beautiful Jaffari Community Centre, which has been featured in media outlets thanks to their sustainability work
- An exhibit showcasing ‘Our Climate, Our Stories’, a compilation of stories, poems and essays written by Canadian BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and People of Color) youth on the impacts of climate change on their lives
- Exhibitor booths and door prizes
A light dinner and networking will take place following the event (starting at 6pm).
