The TDSB’s Anti-Hate and Anti-Racism Strategy is a community-led and TDSB staff facilitated initiative that uses data from the TDSB’s Racism, Bias and Hate reporting portal, which tracks incidents of racism, bias and hate submitted by staff. In turn, this data will help establish a comprehensive strategy and action plan for the TDSB.
Following a board decision in February 2025, staff will continue to engage communities through planned consultations to complete all three phases identified in the Update on TDSB's Anti-Hate and Anti-Racism Strategy (March 2023). This will shape the development of a unified, consolidated and comprehensive Anti-Hate and Anti-Racism Strategy to combat hate and racism in all their forms, which includes the Combatting Hate and Racism Student Learning Strategy.
The TDSB is committed to developing and implementing a strategy that is responsive to the voices of communities in addressing incidents of hate and racism that continue to take place within the district. Community consultations are ongoing and as they are scheduled, please continue to check this page.
Overall, the Anti-Racism and Anti-Hate strategy takes intersectional and systemic approaches with student success as the primary focus. How we address specific forms of hate, racism and discrimination needs coherency, community partnership and cross-collaboration within the diverse groups impacted. The strategy emcompasses six pillars:
1. Affirmation of Identities
2. Student Learning Strategy
3. Professional Learning
4. School-community Relationship
5. Employment Equity
6. School Culture and Climate
