The Campaign Working Group on Environmental Racism is an outcome of break-out session discussions that took place during the event “In Whose Backyard? Organizing Against Environmental Racism in Nova Scotia”, which was held on October 7 in the McInnis Room at Dalhousie. 

Break-out session discussions focused on how the following three issues can support Mi'kmaw and African Nova Scotian communities affected by environmental racism: 1) Community Organizing; 2) Policy and Law; and 3) Education, Media and Art.

The Campaign Working Group is currently reviewing ideas and suggestions from the break-out sessions to identify next steps for mobilizing students and other community members on environmental racism in Mi'kmaw and African Nova Scotian communities.
