The Ontario Association of Architects condemns anti-Black discrimination, as well as all forms of racism that permeate our society. Year after year, OAA Council has identified Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion for all human beings as a priority of utmost importance, and we are working diligently to increase our internal and external education to confront our unconscious biases and promote an inclusive profession.
The events of the last week remind us there is much to be done and we have the urgent
responsibility to act individually and collectively in order to effect positive change and to create a just society for every human being.
