She will be working as a Curatorial Assistant at the Royal Ontario Museum from August 2023.
“Through GCLP, I once again realized that everyone is equal and yet it is the unique color of each one of us that makes the world rich and vibrant. I’m excited to see what is to come through our respective endeavors.”
In order to introduce themselves and their organizations, the participants prepared a poster.
