Description

In Canada’s non-profit sector, where many disenfranchised and racialized communities are considered, there is actually a diversity problem. A recent survey has revealed BIPOC are not represented in leadership at the table in their boardrooms. Today on “This Matters,” we hear a powerful personal story of what that looks like from Soofia Mahmood, an immigrant who works in non-profits. Later, Toronto Star reporter Nicholas Keung explains what the data reveals and what the impact is on the ground.
