We're proud to celebrate Mattia Gregory, DTI Program Coordinator, as a Fellow in the inaugural cohort of the Mastercard Foundation Fellows Program.
The Fellows Program brings together emerging First Nations, Inuit, and Métis leaders from across Canada, providing opportunities for leadership development, mentorship, cultural learning, and community impact.
"I'm honoured to be part of the Mastercard Foundation Fellows Program and to learn alongside Indigenous leaders from across Canada. For me, leadership is about creating opportunities for others to grow and feel empowered. I look forward to continuing to grow as a leader and bringing new perspectives back to my work in Indigenous education to help create meaningful opportunities for Indigenous learners and communities."
Congratulations, Mattia! We look forward to following your leadership journey and the impact you'll continue to make in Indigenous education and communities.
