Nominations open for 2024 CBC Black Changemakers
Tell us about the people blazing trails and making meaningful change in your community
CBC is recognizing current-day Black Changemakers in Atlantic Canada who are helping shape our future — and we need your help.
Now in its second year, this editorial series spotlights Black people in each Atlantic province who create positive change through actions big or small.
We're highlighting Changemakers all year long.
Tell us about the innovators, movers and shakers, and connectors who have the courage to do things differently and the motivation to act.
You're invited to nominate your colleagues, friends and family living in Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Prince Edward Island — anyone making a difference. Self-nominations are welcome.
