Join us for the third episode of our Thought Leader Series: Celebrating Muslim Excellence entitled "Honouring Muslim Elders: Sharing Their Wisdom" as we learn about the remarkable life experiences, triumphs, and challenges faced by our elders.

These individuals have been integral in shaping the landscape of the Canadian Muslim communities, and their stories offer invaluable insights into resilience, perseverance, and faith.

Thought Leaders: Celebrating Muslim Excellence is a joint initiative of the Canadian Council of Muslim Women and the Aga Khan Council for Canada in collaboration with the Muslim Awards for Excellence and the Institute of Islamic Studies at the University of Toronto. The series aims to:

  •  Provide a platform for Muslims who are thought leaders in their areas of expertise/professions from across Canada to enhance and showcase their contributions to Canadian society.
  •  Promote discussion on topics of relevance to Canadian society, with a particular emphasis on emerging issues.
  •  Bring Muslims of diverse backgrounds together to share knowledge and ideas.
