Dr. Josephine Etowa, the Director of CO-CREATH lab was present at @refugee613's Rally for Refugees on November 17th.
Ottawa has always been a welcoming city and we saw that spirit on full display at today’s rally organized by @refugee613. Let’s all work together to find the right solutions for newcomers and spread hope and kindness. Ottawa a toujours été une ville accueillante et nous avons pu constater cet esprit lors du rassemblement d'aujourd'hui organisé par Refugee 613. Travaillons tous ensemble pour trouver les bonnes solutions pour les nouveaux arrivants et répandre l'espoir et la gentillesse.
