Creating a level-playing field that supports a gender-equal world requires a tiered approach: industry, organizational and individual actions.

This virtual event is brought to you by EFC’s Women’s Network and celebrates the achievements and resiliency we have cultivated throughout the year. You’ll also gain insights on the ‘50/30 Challenge’, an initiative by the Government of Canada which involves public and private sector participation.

Register Today – Registration is open to all EFC members and is complimentary.

The Panelists include:

Catherine McKeown, Hammond Power Solutions
Krystyna LeBlanc, Eddy Group
Salma Siddiqui, Stanpro
Vanessa Ricard, Agence Ricard
Rob Dewar, AD Canada

A world that’s diverse, equitable, and inclusive.

A world where difference is valued and celebrated.

Collectively, we can all #BreakTheBias.
