International Development Week

Yesterday we opened the annual IDW (International Development Week) at Seneca with a keynote presentation of the Executive Director of MSF Canada. So very proud to bring him here. Still feel like I left this organization for whom I worked full-time from 1988 to 1995, just yesterday. We had a nicely filled room of interested staff and students.

Seneca President David Agnew introduced our guest speaker and made some remarks about his own brief years of working as CEO of UNICEF Canada.

Afterwards we had elder Blu from the local First Nations share some wise words with us. Two of the students from Seneca's Independent Songwriting diploma program performed a touching song.

As always, these events only happen with good team work!
