Gender Equity

INtro to INclusion

TT NORTH No Comments

We had an amazing evening with our webinar on INtro to INclusion, hosted by Sarah Gallsworthy sharing her insights, passion and love for inclusion in this world.

This presentation will introduce your team to diversity and inclusion. It is a starting point to the diversity and inclusion journey. We begin by exploring why this work needs to be undertaken, explore definitions for key terms, frame the idea of the diversity and inclusion journey and provide context about what leaders need to be thinking about and planning for.

“It was so humbling to share this important work tonight with so many amazing people throughout the North West Territories.  The commitment to making sure every participant has a positive and safe sport experience was so evident. Thank you for being such a gracious host.  I am looking so forward to the next time we are able to gather and learn together.” – Sarah Gallsworthy, INclusion INcorporated. 

We are looking forward to our next session

Pronouns – January 19, 2023 @ 6:00-7:00pm MT

Pronouns have come to forefront of our public discourses on gender and gender inclusion. Participants will walk away with a strong understanding of pronouns, why they are important and how to integrate them into everyday use.
