Latoya Nugent, MSc., PGDip., B.A.
An Executive Leader in Social Equity
I’m Latoya Nugent. I am an executive leader in social equity with over 15 years of experience advancing human rights, organizational transformation, and community-driven change.
My leadership is grounded in lived experience as a refugee, a black queer woman, and a movement strategist. It is shaped by a deep commitment to feminist leadership, economic justice, financial freedom, and systems transformation.
I work at the intersections of community activism and institutional power, building strategies to shift culture, expand access to resources, and drive measurable impact. My approach blends systems thinking with grassroots insights—translating bold ideas into actionable pathways for equity.
From reshaping advocacy across the Caribbean to transformative mission-driven leadership in Canada, I lead with an inspiring combination of rigour, vision, and radical empathy.
For many of us who’ve had to survive broken systems, we know best how to rebuild them. That belief guides my commitment to queer refugee leadership—not just in theory, but in practice.
This website reflects my work, values, and voice. It is the home for my reflections and analysis. You’ll find insights grounded in lived expertise, shaped by a deep belief in what’s possible when communities lead.
