Our Women & Girls Leadership Training is designed for Girls (ages 13 - 19) and Women (ages 20 - 45) to help them envision their leadership potential and gain deep insights into the value of advocacy as a tool for social change. We strongly believe that women and girls who develop leadership and advocacy skills can make change happen in their lives and within their communities.
Participants will gain skills to become more aware of their potential to create change and add their voices to social issues. At the end of the training, they will be supported to design a small community based project around social justice issues of their choice.
Statistics show that about 1 in 10 women executives are racialized, relative to about 1 in 5 women in the overall working population. Women executives make about 56% less than men executives, and racialized women executives make about 32% less than non-racialized women executives (Statistics Canada, 2021).
