Toronto Metropolitan University’s Viola Desmond Awards and Bursary Program promotes Black flourishing, shining a light on the phenomenal Black women and gender-diverse people whose labour, creativity, passion and skills are positively impacting the entire TMU community. Their contributions are ensuring that Viola's legacy thrives for generations to come.

This year, the OVPECI is partnering with the Ted Rogers School of Management, with contributions from campus partners serving on the Viola Desmond Awards Planning Committee.
