CAF-FCA is excited to bring together industry leaders, advocates, trades professionals, and allies for an essential conversation on promoting equity and inclusion in Canada’s skilled trades. This event is dedicated to driving systemic change that empowers women, Indigenous peoples, 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, racialized individuals, persons with disabilities, and other underrepresented groups. Together, we will work to bridge the gaps in resources and support necessary for their success.
Be a True Ally: Learn actionable strategies to amplify marginalized voices and create meaningful change within your communities.
Lead with Commitment: Engage with experts who are driving equity in the skilled trades, setting new standards for inclusivity, and paving the way for systemic improvements.
Fuel Progress through Equity: Understand how prioritizing equity not only addresses the skilled trades shortage but also advances equity-priority trades professionals, building a stronger, more inclusive economy.
