Title
Report on the First "Minority Community Vitality Through Education" Forum
Abstract
From October 28 to 30, 2018, researchers, practitioners, community stakeholders and policymakers gathered at Concordia University for a three-day forum entitled “Minority Community Vitality Through Education,” and focused on Quebec’s English-speaking minority population. The Forum was convened by the Inter-Level Educational Table, a committee of the Quebec English-Speaking Communities Research Network (QUESCREN) at Concordia University. The objective of the Forum was to encourage mobilization around the development of a healthy and sustainable English-language educational offer in Quebec, from pre-K to university, that leads to student retention, access to good jobs in Quebec and a strong sense of identity and belonging.
