Happy International Women's Day 2022!
And thank you for tuning into the second annual Ottawa Valley Women's Collective, in partnership with Local Immigration Partnership of Renfrew-Lanark.
Last year for International Women's Day, OVBB host Holly Molenaar met with several women across the Ottawa Valley for a panel discussion around how they were #ChoosingtoChallenge. This year, we are #BreakingtheBias on gender equality. Our moderator, Jodi Bucholtz from Local Immigration Ppartnership Group moderated a conversation with five diverse women from across the Ottawa Valley who offered their personal stories and commentary on how we can positively move forward towards gender equality at home, in the workplace and in our communities.
We talk periods. We talk about different cultures and upbringings. We talk race and discrimination. We talk pay equality. We talk about how women are not taken seriously. And so much more.
This is a conversation where you’re going to be able to relate to at least one experience on a personal level. Or nodding your head in agreement. Or coming up with your own ideas on how you want to advocate for gender equality. So let me ask you this: How Are You #BreakingtheBias?
