About the Centre

The Sahra Bulle Foundation Centre for Learning and Teaching was established to strengthen responses to gender-based violence, caregiving realities, and systems accountability through structured education. The Centre partners with school boards, post-secondary institutions, and community agencies to design and deliver professional development frameworks grounded in literacy, leadership responsibility, and measurable outcomes.

Why the Centre Was Established

The Centre was founded in response to a persistent gap between awareness and implementation. While institutions often express commitment to safety, equity, and accountability, many lack structured education models that translate into practice. The Centre addresses this gap by integrating lived expertise, educational leadership, and systems-level literacy into practical training frameworks that support long-term institutional change.

Founder & Educational Lead

The Centre is led by Fartumo Kusow, an Ontario-certified educator, author, and institutional trainer with over two decades of experience in education, curriculum development, and community-based engagement. Her work integrates academic instruction, literacy, lived expertise, and culturally responsive practice to support institutions in strengthening accountability and response frameworks.

Through her leadership, the Centre brings together structured education design, trauma-informed literacy, and culturally responsive facilitation to deliver training that is both rigorous and practical.

Institutional Approach

The Centre operates through structured consultation, alignment, delivery, and evaluation phases. Each engagement is designed collaboratively to reflect institutional mandates, governance frameworks, and measurable objectives. Our approach prioritizes clarity, accountability, and long-term systems integration over one-time awareness initiatives.
