Theme 5: Equity, Reconciliation, and Belonging

CLOSED: This discussion has concluded.

What We Heard: Safety and well-being are not experienced equally.

Participants described:

  • Experiences of racism and discrimination

  • Barriers to culturally safe services

  • The importance of reconciliation-in-action

  • The need for collaboration with Westbank First Nation

  • A desire for services that reflect cultural diversity and lived realities

Belonging and cultural safety are foundational to a thriving city.

How might we advance equity, reconciliation, and culturally safe approaches in West Kelowna so that all residents feel respected, included, and supported?
