Policy Analyst Intern
Kitchener, Ontario, Canada
In my role, I conducted an extensive literature review on Ontario education agreements between public school boards and First Nations to assess the effectiveness of the 2019 ‘Reciprocal Educational Approach (REA).’ I critically analyzed both past and current Ontario educational policies, identifying key similarities, differences, and their implications for reconciliation. Additionally, I effectively managed and facilitated group meetings, serving as the main point of contact between our practicum partner and the Indigenous Trustees Council. My experience demonstrates my ability to synthesize complex information, lead collaborative efforts, and build strong relationships, making me a strong candidate for roles that require strategic analysis, collaborative coordination, and maintaining and enhancing stakeholder engagement.
