We hosted an incredible ChangeMaker conference today for young women and gender diverse students. All the credit goes to the fabulous @kingsatwestern and @bresciauc students who planned, organized and ran todays event. They exemplified leadership.

Spending some of the morning with @SJPSKings students- they helped organize the#is year's Changemaker conference with @BresciaUC Hope for the future! #changemaker @KingsAtWestern @KingsPres @rventres @BresciaPres
Saw "Women Talking" this afternoon. AMAZING-filming, acting -characters reflected insights into the impact of domestic/communal violence in context of faith/communities. All of my @SJPSKings students must see this film. Damn @realsarahpolley you tell difficult stories so well.
A beautiful day to celebrate so many @kingatwestern students who have excelled in academics and contributed to community service. @SJPSKings @ShawnaLewk
“Students should know they have the ability to make a difference. A lot of important community change comes from the municipal level…community building really comes back to your local neighbourhoods." - @SJPSKings student @mattplaskett https://t.co/vy6skfWjyV
Please be as shocked and horrified over the unmarked graves of these children as you were last summer. The number is growing and so should our demands for action on the TRC Human remains found near Alberta residential school site likely children https://t.co/Ylsn7fdW0W
Benvenuti ad Arezzo @KingsPres Dave Malloy and partner Valerie! Looking forward to engaging with @SJPSKings students and discussing strategies for reconciliation, truth seeking and peace building.

Agree and would add that 2SLGBTQ+ are deserving of social justice-without it human rights are hard to uphold and remain precarious. Thanks @KingsAtWestern for providing education on GBSV and working to ensure safe campus for all. @SJPSKings#TransRights
2SLGBTQ+ rights are Human Rights. Stand in solidarity by educating yourself on gender-based & sexual violence https://t.co/qvUdRleLeA #IDAHOBIT#TransRightsAreHumanRights
Its only May
Over 50 C - 122 F
Humans or animals not meant to live in such devastating heat - where just sitting outside can kill and every year getting worse
This would not be happening were it not for Big Oil induced warming and mass deforestation https://t.co/zgmDkhQKdy
The rain won’t dampen our spirits- we’re off to Italy in 23 days! 🇮🇹
Our @kingsatwestern students return to @rondinenobel for a 1 month residency in Arezzo. Follow our journey on Twitter, IG & Facebook to see @SJPSKings students putting social justice into action #KingsAtRondine
NATO doesn't want to hit russian missiles, which are destroying Ukrainian hospitals. NATO is afraid to irritate Putin. Ok, we have alternative - how about @BorisJohnson & @POTUS coming to Ukraine now & protect our sky at least for a few days so that children could be evacuated?
It's exciting to see @SJPSKings students making an impact on local leadership to improve environment and stewardship of London's natural resources.
@KingsAtWestern @KingsVPAcademic @KingsPres @melnykgribble @askDeanJoe
Learning the value of advocacy & how to influence policy, is a fundamental part of our local community-based learning opportunities
This is a great example of a student taking on that opportunity, with the support of our community partners @KingsAtWestern
