La Connexional’s mission is to promote development, and growth, social integration, social inclusion and multicultural understanding between African, Caribbean, Latinx and Canadian communities, by being a source of historical and cultural education, and multicultural, networking, and entrepreneurial events. La Connexional uses social innovation, entrepreneurship, and collective collaborations to build vibrant communities and create positive generational impact that starts with communities of the African and Latinex diaspora, and then reverberates out to the communities they inhabit across Canada. Throughout the years, La Connexional has (directly and indirectly) contributed over 60K in the African, Black, Caribbean and Latine communities. In 2018, we held the first ever Afro Latin Festival in Canada (which has grown from 150 attendees to 800 in 3 years). Many of our experiences being bilingual & economically accessible.
