September 8 is International Literacy Day! This year’s theme is “Literacy for people, the planet and prosperity,” highlighting how literacy is fundamental in supporting the development of greater health, equality and education.

Ksalsuti is an avid supporter of developing literacy skills for everyone, notably children. We have three books available in Wolastoqey, Mi’kmaq, and English for children between kindergarten and grade two. These books focus on developing the social and emotional wellbeing of kids.

Voices of Resilience: Collaborative Approaches to Combat Human Trafficking — Indigenous Matriarchs Shaping the Future.

Mark your calendars: April 5th - 7th, 2027, at the Fredericton Convention Centre.

This year, the UN marks the day with the theme "Trapped Behind the Scam," spotlighting a growing form of trafficking — people lured abroad with fake job offers and forced into online scam operations. It's a powerful reminder of why this work matters, and why we're bringing survivors, communities, and allies back together.

Stay tuned for more details on speakers, registration, and programming in the coming months.

World Day Against Trafficking is observed every July 30th.

In Canada, 93% of detected victims are women and girls. Indigenous women and girls account for more than 50% of reported cases, despite being 5% of the population. In the country, the most common form of human trafficking is sexual exploitation. For women and girls, 36% of victims have an intimate relationship with their trafficker.

Human trafficking often involves manipulation, coercion, and an abuse of power. Trafficking does not happen in isolation, often occurring in the context of intimate partner relationships.

The team at Ksalsuti and Sankewi-Pomawsuwikuwam are committed to increasing awareness about human trafficking and aiding Indigenous women and children experiencing family and/or intimate partner violence (IPV).

Find out more in the New Brunswick Information Guide on Human Trafficking: https://www2.gnb.ca/content/gnb/en/departments/women/Violence_Prevention_and_Community_Partnerships/content/Response-to-Human-Trafficking.html You can also report concerns of trafficking to the Canadian Human Trafficking Hotline: 1-833-900-1010

July is Disability Pride Month! It is a time to celebrate the resilience, diversity, and contributions of people with disabilities. This event also seeks to change the way people think about disability; all types of disability are a natural part of human diversity. Advocating for accessibility as the standard ensures true inclusion and belonging for all people.

Continuing to raise awareness about disability and barriers to accessibility in New Brunswick is crucial. As of 2022, 35% of New Brunswickers over the age of 15 have a disability. Seven out of ten of those people experienced at least one barrier to accessibility in the past year. The New Brunswick Accessibility Act passed in 2024 to identify, remove, and prevent barriers to accessibility in the province. These efforts are essential to creating a more equitable and inclusive future.

If you would like to learn more about disability in the province, please visit the New Brunswick Coalition of Persons with Disabilities’ website: https://www.nbcpad.org/.

June 27 is Canadian Multiculturalism Day! The purpose of this day is to recognize and honour the rich diversity of cultures inherent to this country’s history. In Canada, Indigenous Peoples have lived here for over 10,000 years, today speaking over 70 distinct languages. Canada’s history of settlement and immigration has also built a society filled with a variety of vibrant cultures.

Canada’s multiculturalism is a source of strength and shared pride. Locally, the Multicultural Association of Fredericton (MCAF) is hosting the annual Cultural Expressions Festival! For more information, please visit their event website: https://www.cefnb.ca/
