This morning, nearly 250 Secondary 2 students and staff from École internationale Lucille-Teasdale marched to Brossard City Hall to make their voices heard. This symbolic march aimed to raise young people’s awareness of the discrimination experienced by women. Mayor Doreen Assaad joined the mobilization, affirming her support for this essential fight for equality and justice.
This initiative is part of the school’s Culture et citoyenneté québécoise program, which aims to raise young people’s awareness of societal issues and encourage reflection, dialogue and critical thinking.
Ms. Assaad said she was touched by the students’ mobilization to have women recognized for their true worth, and declared: “It is by uniting and raising awareness of the importance of respecting human rights and eliminating all forms of gender-based injustice that we will be able to build a better, fairer and more inclusive world.
