Welcome
I approach my work as an academic, educator, researcher and author from a place of compassion and our shared humanity. I believe by cultivating this mindset, we can work towards equity, inclusion, resilience, a sense of belonging, and well-being individually and collectively in our schools, organizations, and communities.
Join me on a journey of reflection, growth and positive change.

Featured Testimonial:
"Dr. Raghad truly has a gift for broaching difficult topics with care, kindness, and compassion. During her session on Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion, which was presented to all staff members at Ayr Farmers Mutual Insurance Company, she kept the audience engaged and feeling comfortable to participate, despite discussing sensitive topics such as racism and unconscious biases. The positive feedback received after the presentation centered around her simple yet effective approach, visual aids, her ease in explaining new topics to a multi-generational audience and her openness to answering tough questions. Employees walked out of the room after Dr. Raghad’s presentation feeling more connected to their neighbours, appreciating other’s perspectives, and having even greater compassion for others."
