Together, We Can Make a Difference
This is the season for action, reflection, and giving — a time to make a meaningful impact. Join us in championing Black belonging, joy, and brilliance. With your support, the CBSE can continue its critical work of creating spaces where Black excellence is not just recognized but celebrated.
Welcome to the Centre for Black Studies in Education
The Centre for Black Studies in Education (CBSE) in the Ontario Institute of Studies in Education (OISE), University of Toronto, was established on January 1, 2022. The CBSE exists primarily to harness the knowledge of Black scholars and address anti-blackness & inequities that impact Black people in all aspects of Canadian life including education.
Featured Event
