What is the History, Geography, Civics/Careers Department?

The Canadian and World Studies program will empower students to become responsible, informed and active citizens within the diverse communities to which they belong. Our courses promote:

  • An interdisciplinary lens and encourage students to think critically about current issues and historic events. 
  • Social justice lens to examine marginalized groups in society.
  • An Afrocentric focus to understand systemic racism and oppression.
  • Reading, writing and research skills to ensure students are ready for post secondary education. 
  • Use of technological tools to gather, analyze and communicate information.
