This webinar is presented by the Tamarack Institute.
This session is a continuation of Tamarack's Seeds of Transformation webinar series. In Part 1, we shared the origins of Tamarack’s equity, reconciliation, and belonging framework. In this follow-up, you’re invited into an open and honest conversation with Tamarack staff, board members, and a First Nations advisor who supported this transformative journey—what we’ve called our pérégrination.
We’ll reflect on key decisions and lessons, including:
- Why Tamarack staff needed to lead and carry forward the foundational work initiated by Power of Discourse Consulting.
- What non-financial resources were required to carry out this work in a good way?
- How we’ve integrated the Seeds of Transformation Action Plan into Tamarack’s annual operations—including tensions and breakthroughs.
- What the publication of the framework means in a time when DEI is being questioned and deprioritized across sectors.
- What’s next: how we embed this work into community pathways, decision-making, and support for closing equity gaps identified by communities themselves.
You’ll leave with a deeper understanding of what it really takes to conduct an internal equity audit, how to engage your ecosystem in the work, and the very human lessons learned along the way.
We’ll be candid about our limitations and challenges, and also celebrate progress, possibility, and the power of walking together with intention.
