class=\"ekit-team-modal-position\">Vice-President<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"ekit-team-modal-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tMy name is Lyse Riza. I was born and raised in a central-eastern country of the Motherland, called Burundi. Traditionally, Burundi is a herding society where cattle \u201cInka\u201d holds a great deal of power in its culture. Such a power that it is even reflects in the way they greet one another \u2013 \u201cAmashyo\u201d, translated as \u201cmay you have herds of cattle\u201d \u2013 or the way they name their children. My surname Riza was inspired by that tradition for it translates as the first-born female calf, given that as I am a first-born girl.\n\n\nI immigrated to Canada in the Autumn of 2002 with my young family, pursued my postsecondary education, thereafter, graduated in 2008 and started my career as a public servant that same year. I am a blessed mother of three beautiful children. I enjoy long walks in nature, playing music, staying active and speak a total of five languages \u2013 English, French, Kirundi, Kinyarwanda and Swahili. My passion for arts, the love for dance and the knowledge of what People of African Descent have contributed to the world in terms of arts and beyond; are all to be credited for what started as an aspiration to connect with others, to a now fully-fledged and active involvement in all affairs that seek to bring unity and collaboration, to build an even stronger community.\n\n\nArmed with a mission to promote Burundian rich cultural heritage, I have lead, organized, planned and coordinated through musical and theatrical performances, my fellow Burundians of Calgary since 2016 and together we have been part of many wedding ceremonies; communities celebrations; festivals; workshops; sport and cultural events. Namely: \u2022 Marcus Garvey Youth Leadership Recognition and Awards Presentation \u2022 United Nations Association of Calgary for the United Nations\u2019 70th Anniversary Celebration \u2022 Global Fest YYC 2016 \u2022 Canada Day Celebrations (2016-2017) in the community of Rosscarrock \u2022 Unity Dance Across Africa with Woezo \u2022 Ethnica Events organized by Afrikadey Arts and Culture Society \u2022 Caribbean Heritage Sports Competition (5th Annual) \u2022 60th Guinean Independence Day Celebration \u2022 Umuco Cultural Dance Black History Heritage Workshop \u2022 Journ\u00e9e Internationale de la Femme 2018 &amp;2020 by the Portail de L\u2019Immigrant Association \u2022 The celebration of Burundian Independence and Canada Day on July 2021. \u2022 The official launch of DDI Regional office in the Province of Alberta in January 2022.\n\n\nI also appreciate the need to relay the cultural knowledge and musical heritage to younger generations. My dance company Tuvyine Inc. with Lyse Riza in collaboration with INGO Solidarity Association of Alberta through the Burundi Connection Program provides dance lessons to a group of youngsters between the ages of four and fifteen since Spring of 2019.\nI prepared their dance choreographies and authored their scripts at the following events: \u2022 INGO Solidarity Association of Alberta\u2019s 2020 New Year celebration \u2022 2020, 2021, 2022 Ethnik Festival. I am fortunate to be able to share with others my passions and hobbies through public speaking\/MC and moderating at events such as the Rencontre JIF-Journ\u00e9e de r\u00e9flexion entre femmes in March 2022.\n\nMy involvement in the multi-cultural community of Calgary has not gone unnoticed. I am a proud recipient of the following accolades: \u2022 2018 Certificate of Appreciation For Support and Inspiration in Service to the AfroCaribbean Community of Calgary, by Councillor Gian-Carlo Carra, Ward 9 \u2022 Le Prix B\u00e9n\u00e9vole 2018, by PIA Association \u2022 Indo-Canadian Community Association Award for Diversity \u2022 Certificate of Appreciation as a Community Partner by the Black History Heritage Society 2019 \u2022 Le Prix Leadership et B\u00e9n\u00e9vole 2020, by PIA Association\u2022 AC Awards 2020, Unsung Heroes.\n\n\nI am also an avid volunteer who sits in on a few local and national organizations\u2019 Boards: \u2022 The Fountain of Orphans and Vulnerable Women (FOVW) as Secretary \u2022 Calgary BLACK Connection (CBC) Leadership group \u2022 Soutien Entre les Burundais du Canada (S.E.B.C \u2013 Dushigikirane) Leadership group \u2022 Derni\u00e8re Demeure Internationale (DDI) as a Co-Leader of the Alberta Regional office \u2022 Diversity Brand Ambassador in Calgary \u2022 The Vice-President of the Burundian Community Association of Calgary.\n\nI believe in working together to build a better tomorrow for all of us. I consider myself a positive-mind setter and strongly believe that to have a fulfilling live journey on this earth, one must live and love without reserve, authentically.\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<ul class=\"ekit-team-modal-list\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<li><strong>Phone:<\/strong><a href=\"tel:+1
