Malvina and Cultural Bridges was great to work with.
Malvina and Cultural Bridges was great to work with. Malvina had lots of great ideas of how she could apply her knowledge to our context of creating inclusion for newcomers in soccer in Saskatchewan. Because of her expertise, soccer organizations in Saskatchewan have many useful tips for bringing even more newcomers to the game.
Malvina is an amazing human.
She is a entertaining public speaker bringing both her personal experience of cultural difference and compassion for all humans to her work. Malvina makes people feel right at home no matter where they are and that they are here for a reason and deserve to be. Community consciousness is what Malvina is rising.. and we are all winning when compassion is woven in and stories are shared... thank you Malvina for bringing this to our beautiful city.
Malvina is an amazing public speaker!
She has the ability to weave humour through all her stories of her family and her life and growing up as a refugee in Canada and the sometimes painful moments along the way. She reveals personal beautiful vignettes of her journey that touch the audience and she does this with an open heart and authenticity that keeps you captivated. She ultimately triumphs through the difficulties by discovering her true self and how she found her deep sense of purpose in bridging gaps between us all to find joy in our differences. She’s a light in this world and I would recommend Malvina to speak at any event.
