Here in Canada where I live, the rallying cry of “Elbows up!,” drawn from hockey, is pulling together people across the country in spirit of solidarity and resistance to American aggression. Imagine if our shared rallying cry, for people concerned about each other and the planet that is our shared home, was “Elbows linked.”

From March 10 to 16, I was a Canadian delegate, representing KAIROS, at the 69th United Nations Commission on the Status of Women UNCSW in New York. After a very competitive selection process across Canada, I was among seven other leaders and advocates chosen to represent Canada as CSOs (civil society organization) representatives.

Attending the 69th Session of the United Nations Commission on the Status of Women in New York was nothing short of transformative. As a first-time participant, I found myself in an environment surrounded by people with great visions and stories, and deep-rooted solidarity among advocates from all around the world. While the days were packed and sometimes overwhelming, they were also filled with learning, inspiration, and meaningful connections. Truly an experience to remember for a lifetime!

Dive into a transformative journey with our book study on The Serviceberry: Abundance and Reciprocity in the Natural World by Robin Wall Kimmerer. This engaging series intersects with the themes of Jubilee 2025, exploring the profound connections between economy, ecological debt and Indigenous traditions.

At first glance, the Jubilee debt cancellation campaign evokes a sense of compassion. But if we scratch the surface of the debt cancellation campaign, the justice concerns come quickly into view.

KAIROS welcomes the arrest of former Philippine President Rodrigo Duterte by the International Criminal Court in connection with the thousands of extrajudicial killings in the Philippines during the “War on Drugs,” constituting crimes against humanity. We stand in solidarity with the people of the Philippines, particularly those who have suffered unspeakable loss and violence.
