Natasha Mhuriro is grateful to live work and learn on the occupied territories of the xwməθkwəy̓əm, Skwxwú7mesh and səl̓ílwətaʔɬ Peoples. She holds a master’s in public policy from SFU’s School of Public Policy. Her research interests encompass a range of current public policy solutions, including access to safe, affordable housing options for racialized communities, and the use of disaggregated race-based data to address systemic inequities. More recently, her research examines the racialized demographics of senior governance positions within public Canadian corporations, identifying barriers to achieving equitable representation. Driven by a deep-rooted commitment to challenging colonial injustices, Natasha’s work seeks to transform the systems that govern society. She is continually inspired and guided by the teachings and lessons from the Black women in her life.
