Description

HEU’s commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) is critical to building a powerful, inclusive union. This new one-day online workshop is offered as part of our DEI work.

People with disabilities experience higher rates of poverty, discrimination, harassment and violence. As a union, we can help dismantle barriers and systems that create these oppressions.

In this workshop you will:

  • Learn about approaches to disability justice
  • Learn definitions of ableism
  • Discuss the union’s role in fighting for accessibility in the workplace and the labour movement

All HEU members are encouraged to apply.  

Workshop date:

Thursday, April 27, Online

Deadline to apply February 28, 5 pm

Applications are now closed.
