ABOUT US
Shoreline Collaboratives founders (left to right): Kavita Bissoondial, Nishan Zewge-Abubaker, and Erika Pulfer
Shoreline Collaboratives was founded by Kavita Bissoondial, Nishan Zewge-Abubaker, and Erika Pulfer, three lead consultants with a combined 30+ years of in-depth knowledge and practice in equity work.
Today, Shoreline Collaboratives continues to be owned and operated by Kavita and Erika and supported by a wide network of BIPOC collaborative partners. Together, we bring our varied expertise to develop tailored organizational solutions.
Shoreline Collaboratives’ practice is informed by our relationship to our varying ancestral territories, and where we live and work - territory of the Wendat, Haudenausaunee, and Anishnaabe, and the treaty territories of the Mississaugas and Chippewa peoples.
