This is where having a tool to assess that the organization’s practices, programs and actions are geared to facilitating the progress towards equitable representation of women at all levels, until parity is achieved and sustained, is key.

Why are diversity and inclusion important, what are the benefits to the organization and how to reach parity will be covered during this presentation.

In this presentation, you will learn:

• Current status of gender equity in Canada
• Understanding core concepts of Inclusion & Diversity
