DIALOGUE AT UBC Robson - North Plaza with Cultural Celebration

The Dialogue with the "Theme"

The Hands Denied Are the Hands That Built the World is a community dialogue that examines how systemic racism, bias, and exclusion continue to affect people's daily lives, while creating space for truth-telling, reconciliation, healing, and collective action.
The Harambeecouver Global Cultural Connections Marketplace is a vibrant celebration that brings together local and international artisans, entrepreneurs, cultural organizations, community groups, and vendors to showcase authentic arts, crafts, fashion, food, books, wellness products, cultural experiences, creative enterprises and their work.

It provides a welcoming space where visitors will discover unique products, support local businesses and artists, experience diverse cultural traditions, and build meaningful relationships across communities.
