About this Event
Many organizations have moved beyond conversations about inclusion and are implementing institutional reforms to address systemic barriers within their workplaces. But what changes are actually making a difference? How are organizations measuring impact? What challenges arise during implementation?
This interactive discussion brings together employers and organizational decision-makers to share practical experiences, lessons learned, and insights from the reforms they have introduced across areas such as recruitment, advancement, workplace policies, and leadership accountability.
Participants will explore:
- Institutional reforms designed to remove systemic barriers
- Strategies for implementation and change management
- Challenges encountered and lessons learned
- Approaches to measuring outcomes and impact
- How organizations are sustaining progress over time
This session is intended for employers, executives, organizational leaders, and decision-makers responsible for implementing organizational policies, systems, and workplace reforms. It is designed as a peer-learning discussion focused on practical implementation and measurable outcomes.
This project has been funded by Women and Gender Equality Canada
