2024 – Radical Relationalities
The inaugural year of this program focused on building radical relationalities between Indigenous, Black, and racialized communities toward decolonial futures. Radical relationalities is a useful framework for cultivating and nurturing individual and collective relations with the view of shared decolonization and liberation.
2025 – Making Livable Worlds
This year’s theme was inspired by “Making Livable Worlds: Afro-Puerto Rican Women Building Environmental Justice” by Hilda Llorens (2019), as well as the ongoing efforts of Indigenous communities and colleagues dedicated to creating livable spaces.
