Join Pride Toronto, the Ontario Federation of Labour, CUPE and presenting sponsor Air Canada for an empowering event that promises to make a real impact. The 2023 Human Rights Conference: Defenders of 2SLGBTQI+ Human Rights brings together international and local workshop facilitators and keynote speakers to engage in dialogue and learn from one another. Through interactive workshops, attendees will gain insights into the challenges and solutions of labour rights for our communities and navigate potential and current legislation that violates the Human Rights of 2SLGBTQI+ peoples. By building networks of support, we'll create international awareness and foster connections that will have a lasting impact on human rights advocacy. Don't miss out on this opportunity to make a difference. Join us on Wednesday, June 20 and check out our website at www.pridetoronto.com/events for more information.
