From Sabeel Muslim Youth & Community Centre

This post was originally published by opsmanager_1975 on 16 July 2025 and has been reposted by the Office of Equity and Anti-Racism for consolidation of content from two separate features into one.

Thanks to the grant provided by the Office of Equity and Anti-Racism Strategy, Sabeel Centre successfully delivered a series of lectures across schools, universities, youth groups, and community venues. These sessions engaged hundreds of young people and helped foster understanding, resilience, and inclusivity among Muslim youth in Halifax. In addition, we launched a dedicated reporting link on our website, empowering community members to confidentially report incidents of racism or Islamophobia—strengthening our collective response to hate. This initiative not only enhanced awareness but also built meaningful pathways for support and solidarity, reflecting the Office’s mission to address systemic racism and promote equity across Nova Scotia
