2025 Black History Month Summit

February 25, 2025 12:00 PM - 1:30 PM (MST)

Description

Black History Month is an opportunity to celebrate the achievements of Black communities in Canada, listen to their stories, and learn more about their history and contributions to Canadian society. Every February, people across Canada participate in Black History Month events and festivities that honour the legacy of Black people in Canada and their communities. The theme for this year’s Black History Month: “Black Legacy and Leadership: Celebrating Canadian History and Uplifting Future Generations.” No matter where you live, we invite all Canadians to learn more about Black Canadian communities, and how they continue to help shape Canada.

Purpose of this Event: To foster collaboration between Medicine Hat’s civic and economic leaders while exploring strategies to enhance community engagement and drive sustainable growth. By connecting diverse voices from the Black community in business, civic, and non-profit sectors, this summit aims to identify actionable solutions to propel the local economy and strengthen collective impact.

We are pleased to welcome Dr. Ako Ufodike, Deputy Minister, Immigration and Multiculturalism to join us.

Akolisa Ufodike joined the Alberta Public Service in October 2022 as deputy minister of Trade, Immigration and Multiculturalism. Prior to joining government, he was an associate professor at York University where he taught auditing at the undergraduate level, data analysis for performance audits and public sector finance at the graduate level.

Ako is a licensed public practitioner by CPA Alberta. He has almost 30 years of professional experience spanning telecoms, banking, utilities, education, oil and gas and consumer packaged goods with organizations including Bell Canada and Molson Coors. Prior to academia, he was CFO/COO of one of the largest wireless internet service providers in Canada.
