This ongoing strategic convergence brings together feminist organizations, trade unions and community organizations mobilizing on issues of decolonization, climate justice, racial justice, decent work, gender-based violence, migrant rights, the care economy and more. Through the webinar series we are collaborating to share common concerns and identify common ground, build strategy and plan actions to address the root causes of economic marginalization that hits women, Indigenous and racialized communities hardest.

* Simultaneous interpretation (French & English) and captioning will be available.
