Show Notes

This week we are joined by Tomas Passeggi and Paul Sekfy!

In this podcast, we discuss the crucial role of local engagement and global collaboration in promoting social justice and sustainable development. Tomas underlined the need for evaluating programs to ensure accountability, while Paul highlighted how local communities can drive global change by addressing interconnected challenges.

 We engage in further discussion surrounding the importance of understanding the link between local and global efforts in achieving shared goals, such as the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The conversation also touched on the challenges faced by Community Centres, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic and the importance of retaining core values in volunteerism and professionalization.
