Since 1968
History
We are guided and inspired by OUR VISION!
At the Quebec Board of Black Educators (QBBE) we are dedicated to being a learning and research institution committed to the pursuit of excellence in educational opportunities for multicultural/intercultural communities.
Our story began in 1968
When Canada opened its doors to immigration in the late ’60s, a large influx of immigrants from the Caribbean entered the Quebec school system which was ill-equipped to address the cultural differences and challenges the immigrant children brought to the schools. The lack of Blacks pursuing higher education was alarming. There was a deep cultural malaise endemic in the school system that prevented a great number of Black students from completing high school.
In response to the growing educational and societal needs of the English-speaking Black communities, a group of concerned Black educators, mostly from the Caribbean, founded the Quebec Board of Black Educators (QBBE). The organization was legally registered on Dec 29, 1971.
