SUMMARY:Composting for Gardeners - Composting Piles\, Bins and Drums (Virtual)
DESCRIPTION:The previous workshop provided information about the composting process. This workshop is more hands on and looks at various methods for completing both hot and cold composting. Hot composting is the traditional method using one or more bins. This is a great system that makes faster compost\, but it is impractical for smaller gardens. Various plastic bins and drums are more suitable there. We’ll have a look at various commercial and DIY systems. \nAt the end of this course you will be able to select the right composting system that meets your requirements and you will know how to start the process\, care for it\, and what to do with the finished compost. \nIf you are going to take this course it is a good idea to also take Introduction to Composting for Gardeners. \nFee: $10 (plus HST) per person.

SUMMARY:Countering Policy Exclusions: Canada\, disability\, and international commitments
DESCRIPTION:Canada has signed and ratified key international agreements including on disability\, Indigenous rights\, race\, the environment\, economic and social rights and others. Reports from civil society organizations and researchers suggest that the implementation of these agreements is only partial\, resulting in fewer supports and services for people with disabilities in Canada and abroad\, and more people becoming disabled. \nJoin a conversation with civil society leaders and researchers about the implications for people with disabilities of Canada’s failure to implement international agreements\, and the role of women\, girls\, and gender-diverse people with disabilities in leading responses to these failures. \nRegister to receive the Zoom link. \nThis event is the first in a series co-hosted by the Live Work Well Research Centre (liveworkwell.ca) and Dr. Leah Levac’s Canada Research Chair in Critical Community Engagement and Public Policy. Watch for other upcoming events on the topic of Countering Policy Exclusions.
