Jul 10, 2024 - Mar 31, 2026

Through this 21-month systemic change project, Canadian Coalition of Women in Engineering, Science, Trades and Technology Inc. (CCWESTT) will scale its successful Gender Inclusion in Science, Engineering, Trades and Technology (SETT) project to help advance women’s economic security. Systemic change knowledge and resources will be scaled to populations both inside and outside the SETT community. Scaling these efforts will create a central resource for the Canadian status of gender equality in SETT. It will address gaps in systemic change knowledge, including the status of gender equality in SETT workplaces across Canada, opening the way for a national conversation for equitable change. To do so, the project will host systemic change events, create a Gender Equality Report Card on SETT working environments, and launch a Gender Equality in SETT Advocacy Campaign.
