Join Pride at Work Canada for a conversation on strategizing together against rising hate. Over the past year, there has been a rise in anti-2SLGBTQIA+ protests, attacks, and political movements. Drag events are being targeted, anti-trans policies and laws are getting proposed or enacted, and trans people are facing significant backlash. You and your organizations all have a role to play, and 2SLGBTQIA+ communities and supporters have a long history of making the world better.
Learning Objectives:
- Share experiences and strategies to work against rising hate
- Build your networks towards more resilient communities
- Define the role you and your organization play in strategizing against rising hate
Audience:
- Community Partner staff and board
