2023 Living in Harmony award recipients

March 22, 2023

A ceremony was held at the Broadway Theatre on the International day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination (March 21) to announce the 2023 Living in Harmony award recipients.

Living in Harmony awards recognize outstanding achievements in contributing to the elimination of racial discrimination in our community. They are presented annually on or around the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. Saskatoon City Council also proclaims March as Cultural Diversity and Race Relations Month.

2023 Recipients

Community Recognition: Stephanie Cole with Wildwood School – Recognized for creating anti-racist and anti-oppressive groups in all schools she has taught in and as being the steady voice calling for action and recognition for people who are underrepresented or marginalized.

Since there were no in-person award ceremonies held in 2020-2022, award recipients from those years were also recognized at this year’s event. The names of previous award recipients can be found at saskatoon.ca/LivingInHarmony.
