Common Ground: Building Canada’s Open Digital Foundation – May 5-6, 2026
This conference will bring together government leaders, technology experts, and open data practitioners to explore how shared digital infrastructure can support better decision-making, stronger communities, and a more resilient public sector.

May 5, 2026 (Virtual): Interactive Workshops and Technical Deep-Dives.
May 6, 2026 (In-Person): Main Conference at Mississauga City Hall, 12th Floor.

Standards as the Blueprint: Ensuring interoperability and data validation.
Sovereignty, Security, and Trust: Navigating ethics, legalities, and digital twins.
Practical Implementation: Case studies and the business case for digital twins.
AI as the Potential Bridge: Exploring AI as a data “glue” or a source of new challenges.

Supporting grassroots groups and community-based collaboratives led by people who share identities, lived experiences and who face the same systemic barriers as those who will benefit from their projects is integral to YOF’s funding priorities. Projects led by and for communities play a key role in developing solutions that are tailored to the needs of communities and providing appropriate support for those with similar experiences.
Investments made through YOF extend beyond project funding. Grant recipients receive capacity building support to learn and grow through specialized coaching and mentorship.
Whether your group wants to pilot a new project or expand an existing one, YOF offers a range of grants that may be the right fit for your group.

Voices That Matter: Black Youth & Mental Health Symposium
2026-07-17 11:00 - 14:30 | Niagara Falls Public Library, 4848 Victoria Ave, Niagara Falls, Ontario, Canada
This symposium is an opportunity to explore the findings from the UDADA Project’s Black Youth in Canada Mental Health Survey and consider how this knowledge can inform meaningful action across services, organizations, and systems.
The project highlights experiences that are too often overlooked in traditional data, including how race, age, gender, culture, stigma, and systemic barriers shape the mental health and wellbeing of Black youth. Through this youth-centred initiative, Black youth shared their experiences navigating mental health challenges, accessing support, and building resilience.
The findings point to urgent gaps in culturally responsive care, while also identifying opportunities for collaboration, innovation, and stronger, more affirming supports.
This symposium is more than a presentation. It is an opportunity to listen, reflect, and work together to help create communities where Black youth feel seen, understood, supported, and able to thrive.
