This knowledge mobilization event is supported by UBC Faculty of Education EMERGE grant. The knowledge mobilization is based on the book Counternarratives from Asian American Art Educators: Identities, Pedagogies, and Practice beyond the Western Paradigm. Therefore, in the morning section, we have the book authors presenting their chapters. And in the afternoon we have Canadian community leaders to speak on this topic.
