According to the Cambridge English Dictionary, heritage means features belonging to the culture of a particular society, such as traditions, languages, or buildings, that were created in the past and still have historical importance. Through a virtual panel conversation, we would like to explore the significance of Asian Heritage Month to Asian-Canadians today living in Vancouver. This virtual event will feature a moderator and four panelists who will respond to various pre-recorded audio, video, and written submissions from UBC and Vancouver community members who have self-recorded responses to a series of questions.
