The REFLECT program offers community-focused cultural leaders a funded opportunity for a cohort-based learning experience to support, develop and enhance their leadership in the cultural sector. Participants will be engaged in a year-long process of learning, sharing, building, rethinking, and leading alongside a community of peers. Individuals do not need to have been the formal “leader” of an organization in order to apply.

REFLECT is for underrepresented, equity-deserving individuals including Indigenous, Black, racialized, 2SLGBTQ+, Deaf, and disability communities, and/or those whose practice centres underrepresented and equity-deserving communities.

Participants may explore an idea or research area related to their work or practice. Exploration will take on various forms based on the individual’s career aspirations.
