The Global Speaker Series is a set of webinars offered to students across programs in the Faculty of Social and Community Services (FSCS) at Humber College. Experts working in the field from Canada and across the globe, are invited to present on specialist topics.

Recently, two webinars were hosted on Child and Youth Care, on Feb. 23 and Mar. 16, which brought together experts working in child welfare and protection in Canada and India, to share their approaches with the students. Guest speakers at these sessions, included Ben Omoregie, Director of Operations at Youth Without Shelter, Cheyanne Ratnam, Co-Founder of the Ontario Children’s Advancement Coalition, Irwin Elman, former Ontario Child Advocate, Priya Jagdale, Director of Baroda Citizen’s Council (India), and Dr. Juin Dutta, Founder and President of Srotoshwini Trust (India).
