The University of Waterloo has been part of HeForShe, the United Nations' gender equity initiative, since 2015. Joel Dubin, the Math Faculty advocate for HeForShe, tells us about the Year of Male Allyship and what actions people at Waterloo are taking to support gender equity. Ottawa hosted the Waterloo Innovation Summit’s look at the future of talent. The Velocity Healthtech Fund launched. And the Grimm Lecture examines Hannah Arendt’s work and its relevance in our current political climate.
