aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cYou have an entire lifetime of impact ahead of you,\u201d Roy promised graduands during their June 17 convocation, as she began her address to them. \u201cWhether you stand in front of the classroom or you get to decide what is taught in the classroom, whether you focus on expanding access to education or you set standards of education, you will make a difference in the lives of learners.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>An advocate for the transformational power of education through her work at the Mastercard Foundation, Roy made several requests of graduands as they move ahead in their careers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She urged them to lean into one of the most important qualities teachers can possess. \u201cAs educators, one of the most important things you do \u2013 and you will do \u2013 is to recognize promise and talent in others, even before they may perceive it in themselves,\u201d she said. \u201cYou have the opportunity to truly see the whole person \u2013 not the boundaries and not the limitations around them.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That, she explained, can lead to something educators are uniquely positioned to do. \u201cMore than just see them, you will enable their passions, develop their confidence and help them believe in themselves so they can walk their own journeys and create their own opportunities,\u201d said Roy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter

style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>She also called upon graduands to transform the reality of who deserves an education, as she noted there are many who struggle to access learning due to poverty, conflict, distance, disability, lack of teachers, gender and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roy noted she has seen \u2013 and worked to change \u2013 this directly, through her work with the Mastercard Foundation, which advances the development of educational opportunities for African youth and their families, and looks to empower 30 million young Africans by 2030 with the creation of educational and economic opportunities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Roy delivered her final call to action in the form of an anecdote. She recounted a trip to Moosonee, a small town in northern Ontario sometimes referred to as \u201cthe gateway to the Arctic.\u201d She was doing work there with the Weeneebayko Area Health Authority, training Indigenous young people to become health professionals who would help the larger medical system embody Indigenous knowledge and world views about what is healthy and what is wellness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During her visit, she encountered \u2013 in person, for the first time \u2013 an ice road.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She learned that during winters, communities transform rivers, lakes and other bodies of water into ice that\u2019s strong enough to sustain trucks and cars transporting food, fuel and necessities to otherwise isolated communities. \u201cI was just stunned by the sophistication and the technical know-how to create these roads,\u201d Roy said. \u201cThe ice road reflected Indigenous technology based on traditional knowledge of living with the natural environment.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At the same time, she marvelled at the cutting-edge knowledge being integrated into the unique type of infrastructure. As climate change threatens those ice roads, making it hard to predict where dangerous cracks might form, she learned that university researchers are applying emerging technologies \u2013 like sensors and artificial intelligence \u2013 to create better predictive models that can identity where cracks and ridges may form.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ice road \u2013 its past, present and future \u2013 reminded Roy of education. \u201cThe ice road isn\u2019t just a bridge across waters,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s a bridge connecting communities and cultures. It\u2019s a bridge connecting traditional knowledge with new forms of knowledge, connecting the past and the present.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In that realization, she found the lesson she wanted to impart on the Faculty of Education graduands she was addressing. \u201cYou can be that bridge,\u201d she urged. \u201cBe that bridge.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Article originally published in the June
