We have exciting Racial Justice, Human Rights and Women’s Conferences planned this year, with the themes: ‘Recognition, Justice and Economic Development’ for the Racial Justice Conference; ‘Empowering Change’ for the Human Rights Conference; and ‘Survivors Matter’ for the Women’s Conference. **Please note: the Women’s conference is only open to those who identify as women**

In addition to exciting speakers, panel discussions and guests at our conferences, we will be holding elections for members to be part of the Indigenous Council, Pink Triangle, Racial Justice, Workers with Disabilities, Women’s, Young Workers and International Solidarity Committees.

Please note that all the elections for the Equality Committees, including for the Racial Justice Committee, will take place at the Human Rights Conference, on December 8 and 9. The Women’s Committee will take place at the Women’s Conference on Friday, December 10.

We encourage members, who are interested, to consider running for elections to join the above committees so you can contribute and work on the change we want to see in our unions, workplaces and communities.
