Consulting

Rohene also provides advisory and consultation on a number of areas and high-impact projects.

Below are a few examples of initiatives she has led and been involved in.

Understand. Dismantle. Act.: A snapshot of anti-racism and anti-hate resources within BC’s post-secondary system

Completed an environmental scan of 25 BC post-secondary institutions (PSIs) on anti-racism and anti-hate resources and training that resulted in an emergent framework and a report that has been turned into an open educational resource is accessible to anyone working in BC PSIs to deepen their learning (see project and report).

Collaborated with BCcampus and the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Training in 2022.

Redefine Your Learning and Practice Series

Co-designed and co-instructed a three-part learning series to increase self-awareness and capacity of Early Childhood Educators by advancing the theme of rethinking learning and practice within the BC Early Learning Framework. Using a hybrid approach, three modules make-up the learning series; these are:

  • Module 1: Cultivating Compassion: Decolonizing and Developing Culturally Responsive Teaching

  • Module 2: Inclusive Foundations: Creating Safety and Belonging

  • Module 3: Collective Care: Centering Self and Others

The series is available via self-enrol on Canvas and a facilitator guide can be used to accompany leading the modules and sharing circles created for this series. This series is governed by copyright licence and cannot be copied, revised, adapted or redistributed for commercial use.

Collaborated with BCcampus, the Ministry of Education and Child Care and the Government of Canada in 2023 and 2024.

Designed curriculum for the ISIEP - a program focused on teaching Canadian immigration policies and practices to practitioners in post-secondary institutions interested in becoming Regulated International Student Immigration Advisor. See program details here.

Collaborated with Canadian Bureau for International Education (CBIE) from 2018-2021.

What People Are Saying

  • Dr. Punita Lumb, Co-Chair, The Critical Internationalization Studies Network

    “

    Rohene is a dynamic speaker who is able to address the nuances and complexities behind systems change and DEI in higher education. I had the pleasure of inviting Rohene to the Critical Internationalization Studies Network to address race and racism and its intersections with internationalization. I appreciated the wealth of experience Rohene brought to the discussion along with the ability to relate to various audience members including researchers, faculty and staff. Rohene is able to inspire and motivate - I'm looking forward to her future speaking engagements!

  • Dan Stefanson, Vice-President, Consumer Protection BC

    “

    Rohene facilitated a Microaggressions workshop specific to the needs of Consumer Protection BC. The workshop materials were well prepared and presented making them easy to understand. Most importantly, the session offered practical advice about how to identify and address microaggressions in the workplace.

  • Dr. Gillian Balfour, Provost & Vice-President, Academic, Thompson Rivers University

    “

    Thompson Rivers University (TRU) was honoured to have Rohene Bouajram co-lead our Women in Leadership series, alongside Nicole Kaniki and Evelyn Asiedu. Rohene's skillful approach to storytelling and honest conversation with community and senior leadership teams have created a much needed roadmap for our anti-racism work. I look forward to bringing Rohene's relational approach to our leadership development at TRU.

  • Bree Carney, Canadian Immigration and International Education Professional

    “

    Rohene is without a doubt one of the most empowering and intelligent individuals I have ever had the opportunity to work alongside. Every time we collaborate, whether it be as co-instructors, presenters, or program creators, I leave the experience with new perspectives and the genuine delight that comes with being professionally and personally challenged. Rohene has this unique ability to harness the best attributes of each and every one of her team members, and empowers everyone to push themselves further to better understand the complexities in front of us, and how we can best navigate them that’ll both enrich the programming, and those participating in it. On a personal note, every time Rohene presents, I wish she would record an audio book. The way she eloquently and clearly discusses and defines complex subject matter needs to be a class in and of itself.
