Intersectionality & Collaboration In Action: Revitalizing Municipal Campaign Schools

Date: Friday, December 13, 2024
Time: 11:00 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
Location: Online via Zoom (Registration required)

A conversational session about the new, collaborative, and intersectional approach taken to revitalize Municipal Campaign Schools in advance of the 2024 municipal elections. With the province’s goal to increase its population to two million by 2060, work began to rethink the approach to engaging more interest in running for local government. The Department of Municipal Affairs & Housing and the Status of Women Office embarked on a collaborative journey in the fall of 2023 and launched the initiative during the spring of 2024 in preparation for the October 2024 municipal elections. This session aims to inspire participants through a practical example – from concept to execution – of how the concept of intersectionality can be applied to a GNS program when we work collaboratively across and outside of government.
