Through accessible and thought-provoking lectures, Dr. Keith Thor Carlson (UFV Canada Research Chair and Director of PARC) connects past and present in ways that speak to the challenges and opportunities we face today.

Designed for educators, social workers, public servants, and community members alike, this series invites all learners to come with curiosity, openness, and a willingness to engage. No prior experience required
