Change Makers Series - Meet Dr. Claudine Bonner

Acadia’s Vice-Provost of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion knows everyone can make a difference.


“You just do what you can to make change where you are,” says Dr. Claudine Bonner, adding that it sometimes means getting past your fears and stepping in to do your part.


“Don’t be intimidated by the thought that ‘I have to change the world,’” she advises. “You’re just changing this little thing here, and maybe that will become the ‘big’ thing…but just start here and see what happens.”
