Jamil Mahmood has been fighting for a more equitable world since day one. Jamil has experience in grassroots activism, a degree in International Development studies, and was Executive Director of Spence Neighbourhood Association before recently taking the same role with Main Street Project here in Winnipeg.

I sat down with Jamil Mahmood, Executive Director of Main Street Project, to talk about equity and inequality, the role of philanthropy now and in the future, and how with proper organizing and systems in place; no social problem is unsolvable.
