Advancing Equity and Inclusion in Nova Scotia: Updates from the Office of Equity and Anti-Racism

Time: 2::00 - 3:00 pm AT

The Office of Equity and Anti-Racism (OEA) was established in 2021 and has been working to ensure that human rights are protected and respected in Nova Scotia since it was created. Representatives from the Office will provide an update on their work including the requirement that municipalities and villages create plans to address systemic hate, inequity, and racism. Achievements from across government in support of the Equity and Anti-Racism strategy will also be profiled as reflected in the Office’s annual report, a legislated requirement under the Dismantling Racism and Hate Act. Finally, the role of the office in supporting equity and accessibility in the civil service will be shared.
