Portraits of the 2026 Youth Scholars

The Indigenous and Racialized Young Scholars Program creates space for young people to explore issues that matter deeply to them while growing as leaders, researchers, artists, and change-makers.

Scholars investigate topics connected to identity, racism, reconciliation, belonging, spirituality, justice, and community. They then transform their research into creative projects and presentations that help the wider church engage in meaningful conversation and action.

These are not simply academic projects. They are personal stories, lived experiences, challenging questions, and hopeful visions for the future.
