The Canadian Black Policy Network (CBPN) is a policy-driven network, which seeks to provide unique opportunities to collaborate, innovate and find sustainable solutions for policy issues affecting Canada’s Black communities.
The network’s main goals are to create a safe space for Black community members and allies to explore policy issues affecting Canada’s Black communities; encourage Black community engagement within the policy process both in a leadership and adequately-consulted capacity; and to encourage and promote solidarity and unity within Black communities through open dialogue and collaboration.

Does this innovation transition present us with an opportunity or an obstacle?
