Speakers<\/h3>\n

Kamala Todd\u00a0<\/strong>is a Metis-Cree community planner, educator, curator and filmmaker who was born and raised in the beautiful lands of the h\u0259n\u0313q\u0313\u0259min\u0313\u0259m\u0313 and Skwxw\u00fa7mesh-speaking people (also known as Vancouver). She is currently adjunct professor at SFU Urban Studies and UBC SCARP.<\/p>\n

Kamala was the City of Vancouver\u2019s first Indigenous Arts and Culture Planner, and before that, she was the Aboriginal Social Planner, where she created Storyscapes, an Indigenous community arts and storytelling project to help bring greater recognition for the many diverse stories of Musqueam, Squamish, and Tsleil-Waututh and urban Indigenous people in Vancouver.<\/p>\n

Alex Boston<\/strong>\u00a0is the Executive Director of SFU\u2019s Renewable Cities program. He has two decades of experience in climate and energy policy, planning and engagement. He has served governments, real estate developers, utilities, university think tanks, municipal associations, and non-profits. Alex attributes some of his strongest policy solutions to meaningful engagement with earnest skeptics and open-minded opponents.<\/p>\n

Anthonia Ogendule\u00a0<\/strong>is an trained urban planner and resilience professional with a passion for cities and engaging communities. She was a member of the North East False Creek Stewardship Committee, igniting the re-imaging on Hogan\u2019s Alley and launching the Hogan\u2019s Alley Land Trust, which evolved into the Hogan\u2019s Alley Society.<\/p>\n

Inspired by her now 13 year old daughter, Anthonia founded the Eth\u1ecd\u0301s Lab, a non-profit social enterprise providing youth ages 13-18 access to emerging technologies and an impassioned community of innovators. Eth\u1ecd\u0301s Lab is leveraging Culture as a vehicle to access STEM Exploration to ensure youth are creators vs. consumers.<\/p>\n

Jesse Donaldson<\/strong>\u00a0is an author and journalist. His current series is 49.2: Tales from the Off-Beat, a series examining the weird and wonderful elements of Vancouver\u2019s history. The first instalment, Land of Destiny (Anvil Press) delved into the often unseemly world of Vancouver real estate.<\/p>\n

Moderator<\/h3>\n

Frances Bula<\/strong>\u00a0has written about urban issues and city politics in B.C.\u2019s Vancouver region, covering everything from Downtown Eastside drug addiction to billion-dollar development projects, since 1994. She writes for the Globe and Mail, BC Business and Vancouver magazine.<\/p>\n
