Gender Equity Awareness BCIT.
The BCIT Student Association is holding a campaign to promote gender parity and inclusion. They advocate for the right of each person to be included, valued and respected, and they envision a campus where diversity is fostered and celebrated.
The three-day campaign next week aims to create conversations and recognition of the issues faced by women on campus which act as barriers to their success at BCIT. In addition, we aim to involve and encourage men to recognize and speak up against discrimination, especially in male-dominated fields.
The campaigning effort will include educational games, social media contest, prizes and raffles, refreshments, and more. However, in order for this to happen, BCIT members each can take this opportunity to make a small, impactful change.
The campaign is in need of student volunteers! You can help at the campaign tables (during school hours Mar. 20-22), at the speaker series (Mar. 21) and the Bridging the Gender Gap workshop (Mar. 22).
