The New Rules
Social responsibility isn’t Diversity and Inclusion lip service— it’s intersectional equity
Hi, I’m Beisan Zubi
My name is pronounced Bee-SSAN, if you were curious.
I’m a Canadian of Palestinian descent who has lived in Waterloo Region for several years and has great ties with the nonprofit, tech, arts and local advocacy communities. In my personal time, I’ve fostered and rescued eight dogs and three kittens, and I enjoy practicing yoga, gardening, and crafts. I was the NDP Candidate in 2021 for Kitchener Centre, which I’m proud of and learned a lot from — but the trainings I give are not partisan (even if they definitely are ‘political’).
I’m passionate about creating change and building a more equitable world. My goal is to provide my clients and collaborators with effective tools, resources, and ideas to understand their own roles in social change and collective justice.
My writing
Sometimes the things I write make it into print. I’ve had my words featured in The Ottawa Citizen, The Montreal Gazette, VICE Magazine, TVO and more.
