The historic conference is back with its 2nd edition
After the resounding success of the first edition, we are delighted to announce the 2nd edition of our conference, which will be held on October 16 and 17, 2024. This year, we have prepared an exceptional two-day program, preceded by an excursion pre-conference on October 15, to offer you an even more enriching experience.
This year’s THEME
“HARNESSING EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES TO ERADICATE RACISM”
In the digital age, new technologies are transforming our world at dizzying speed, providing unprecedented opportunities but also revealing complex challenges, particularly for Black and racialized communities who face systemic racism deeply rooted in our social structures, economic and political. As we evolve in an increasingly digitalized world, it is essential to understand how modern technologies influence these dynamics.
Résolutions2024 will bring together a wide range of experts, policymakers, community leaders and human rights defenders for a collective effort towards a more inclusive and equitable society.

An inspiring tour of Salem Chapel Church in St. Catharines
This historic site served as a refuge and welcoming space for Black people in the 1800s, playing a crucial role in the history of the fight against racism and injustice.
The goal of this day is to immerse our attendees in the rich and moving history of Salem Chapel Church, two days before the conference, providing them with an in-depth perspective of the challenges and triumphs of Black communities during this era.
By revisiting this symbolic location, we hope to spark meaningful thoughts and discussions about how to combat racism today, strengthen our collective commitment to equality, and set the stage for fruitful exchanges during the Résolutions2024 conference.
Together, we seek to honor the past while building a fairer and more inclusive future.
