The OPSEU Provincial Women’s Committee invites applications for the 2015 Women’s Conference – The “F” Word—Reclaiming Feminism!
This year’s conference promises to be particularly exciting. We are pleased to present a thought-provoking roster of speakers, panel discussions, artists and films in relation to the conference theme.
We are looking for a rich mix of diverse backgrounds and points of view among conference participants. The goal of the conference is to educate and raise awareness about how women can engage in activism in a time of fight back to reclaim feminism.
The conference will also provide skills-based workshops focusing on solidarity and becoming allies in the following areas:
Women in activism: creating change and solidarity
Fighting pay inequity and poverty
Challenging the stigma: How to be an ally to sex workers
Don’t miss this opportunity to network, learn, share experiences and have some fun. Please join us as we enjoy the camaraderie of our peers from across the province. With your participation, passion and insight we can make this one of the best women’s conferences yet!
Please submit a completed application form to the Equity Unit by e-mail or fax, no later than midnight on Friday, September 4, 2015.
Please also note that we will be using an anonymous selection process based on responses to the questions set out on pages 4 and 5 of this application. Incomplete and late applications will not be considered.
