Nonprofit Driven Regional Connects: Peterborough

This series of regional gatherings is presented by the Ontario Nonprofit Network (ONN)

It’s time again for some real talk, in real life This is not your average “conference” - Nonprofit Driven Regional Connects are small gatherings with big impacts. These are opportunities for nonprofit peers to share space and ideas for our collective well-being, explore systemic solutions locally, learn more about ONN’s work, and break bread together. Our sector continues to be intentionally under-resourced and privatized, is experiencing growing legal attacks from the community for doing its critical work, and grapples with increased scrutiny and eroding public trust. To combat the current climate of deep polarization, we must invest in building relationships to help our sector and communities thrive. Regional gatherings, co-hosted in collaboration with local partners, are an ongoing exercise in movement-building, and actively shaping the future together. 💚

# What to expect:

  • Get practical data, information about policies and trends impacting nonprofits in London and across Ontario, and discuss how these are showing up in your work and communities.
  • Make connections over the issues that matter to you - engage in conversations and learn from local peers and team members from Pillar and ONN.
  • Enjoy breakfast and lunch with nonprofit colleagues.
  • After the event, all registrants will receive slides, notes, and links to resources.

# Other Regional Connects Sessions

  • London and area - June 4 - Registration is now open
  • Sault Ste. Marie-Algoma - Coming soon in October 
  • Halton region - Coming soon in November

We cannot address complex community needs alone - and we don’t have to. Join us at an event near you!

Basic Income Earth Network Congres 2026 | Basic Income and the Polycrisis: The Key to Unlocking the Puzzle

This conference is presented by the Basic Income Earth Network (BIEN) and Basic Income Ontario.

# Basic Income and the Polycrisis: The Key to Unlocking the Puzzle

*In Person and Virtual Conference

The BIEN Congress will officially open on August 20. All Congress participants are also invited to a half-day, pre-congress session the afternoon of August 19 focused on Canada. 

The 2026 Congress is being held as the early decades of the twenty-first century are defined by a polycrisis: the causal entanglement of multiple, overlapping crises. These pressures span interconnected systems, including the natural environment (climate disruption), the economy (inflation, unaffordability, widening income and wealth inequality, and persistent poverty), political institutions (erosion of public trust, democratic strain, and the rise of exclusionary populism and authoritarian governments), and the rights-based international order. Together, they expose the limits of fragmented welfare systems that respond to risks in isolation rather than as cumulative and systemic challenges. In this context, basic income is gaining renewed attention not only as an anti-poverty measure, but as a foundational policy for strengthening social inclusion and solidarity.

This Congress theme positions basic income as a unifying response to the polycrisis—one that cuts across policy silos and reconnects income security to broader questions of justice, sustainability, and democratic capacity. The theme invites critical examination of basic income as part of a renewed social contract capable of countering precarity, fragmentation, and exclusion in complex, interdependent systems.

What is distinctions-based health impact assessment

This webinar is hosted by the National Collaborating Centre for Indigenous Health. 

# Webinar description

Health impact assessment (HIA) provides a systematic process to identify and analyze the potential effects of a proposed development project on the health and well-being of a population. For Indigenous Peoples in Canada, standardized HIAs are not able to adequately measure potential health impacts as these processes do not consider the full range of cultural, social, spiritual and economic determinants of Indigenous well-being. Instead, distinctions-based HIA approaches are required that begin from place-based, community-specific and holistic environmental health frameworks. In this webinar, join Drs. Diana Lewis and Elana Nightingale for a discussion of distinctions-based health impact assessment: what it is, what it could look like in Canada, and how it could transform HIA into a process that reflects Indigenous Peoples’ diverse worldviews, knowledge systems and values. Drawing on more than a decade of Indigenous community-led health research experience, the presenters discuss what it means to meaningfully collaborate with Indigenous communities and develop impact assessment processes grounded in distinctions-based models of well-being.

# Learning objectives

  • Identify distinctions-based models of health and well-being and how they differ from mainstream health models.
  • Understand the implications of Indigenous community-specific models of health and well-being for HIA processes in Canada.

# Presenters

Dr. Diana Lewis is a member of Sipekne’katik First Nation and Associate Professor/ Canada Research Chair (Tier II) in Indigenous Environmental Health Governance in the Department of Geography, Environment and Geomatics, University of Guelph. She is also Director of the IndigenERA Lab and a Member of the Royal Society of Canada (2025). Her research focuses on promoting understanding of Indigenous worldviews in environmental decision-making and advocating for Indigenous-led approaches to give communities baseline health data and sovereignty over the data in environmental decision-making. She is currently working with Indigenous communities across Canada to develop an Indigenous-led environmental health risk assessment approach.

 Dr. Elana Nightingale is a Postdoctoral Scholar in the IndigenERA Lab at the University of Guelph where she works on Indigenous economic impact assessment. She holds a PhD in Geography from Western University, a MSc in Local Economic Development from the London School of Economics, and a BA in Economics from Carleton University. Elana aims to support community-led research as a means to advance health and social equity for First Nations, Inuit and Métis communities in Canada. Her research interests include the social determinants of Indigenous health, community economic development, community-based research methodologies and knowledge translation.

Building a Newcomer Health Plan in Ontario - the time is right

This learning event is hosted by Access Alliance Newcomer and Community Health, an Alliance-member CHC. 

It is time to design, validate, and evaluate an equity-focused Newcomer Health Plan (NHP) in Ontario. Join us for a community conversation to reimagine Ontario's health system for immigrants and refugees.

We envision a co-designed Newcomer Health Plan that will involve policy and program interventions, workforce (i.e. better inclusion of Internationally Educated Health Professionals) and service delivery models, and governance frameworks. It will strengthen prevention, health promotion, equity-focused outreach, and system navigation through improved access, cultural safety, accessible language, including translation, and coordinated pathways linking newcomers to health services and health-adjacent social supports. The plan will integrate trauma-informed, culturally tailored strategies and address governance and workforce barriers.

If we are successful, future newcomers arriving in Ontario will no longer face persistent barriers to healthcare access, such as language exclusion, fragmented navigation, limited culturally safe services, racism, and systemic discrimination. They will discover a welcoming and inclusive health system, built with them in mind.

# Who should attend:

You should attend if you work at the intersection of health, settlement, equity, and inclusion. This is a working session. You will be participating in active discussions to help shape ideas and discuss how best to co-create a Newcomer Health Plan with health, settlement, community, and newcomers themselves.  The goal is to embed the NHP into Ontario’s health system. System transformation; not new research, or a new program. What role might you or your organization play in moving this forward? What do you need to be able to contribute?

Find out more about our ideas and the full session agenda at https://accessalliance.ca/research-blog/a-newcomer-health-plan-for-ontario-the-time-is-right/#NHPevent and join us on April 29th!

Big F***ing Deal: Compounding Effects of Stigma for People Living with HIV

This video call is hosted by the Dr. Peter Centre. It is funded by the Public Health Agency of Canada. 

This session will feature a presentation from Casey House as they share their new short film, Big F***ing Deal. Produced as a part of their Smash Stigma campaign, this short demonstrates how stigma intensifies and outcomes diverge when an HIV diagnosis intersects with challenges such as housing insecurity, substance use dependency, mental health challenges, and discrimination tied to identity. During the session, Casey House will discuss their Smash Stigma campaign and detail the intentions, production, and reception of their new short.

This video call will be conducted in English, with simultaneous French translation provided. 

Featured speaker: Lisa McDonald, Director, Communications and Public Policy, Casey House. 

# Why Join?

  • Gain insight into how healthcare organizations are addressing stigma to improve health outcomes for their clients.
  • Explore practical lessons in confronting socially constructed barriers to equitable health outcomes for people living with HIV from a communications perspective.
  • Reflect on the effects of being judged, misunderstood, or unsupported for clients seeking care for complex health issues, including HIV.
  • Engage in shared learning with peers navigating similar system-level challenges
