Description

Despite progress, 2SLGBTQIA+ communities across Canada continue to face significant inequities, stigma, and discrimination. This session will highlight the contemporary realities and experiences of 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, explore core concepts of gender identity, gender expression and sexual orientation, and strengthen participant knowledge of and capacity to advance 2SLGBTQIA+ inclusion in their individual practices and their workplaces more broadly. Through a candid, practical lens, attendees will build their capacity to bring 2SLGBTQIA+ to life in their work.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand Gender and Sexuality from a Structural Perspective
  • Explore the experiences, identities and realities of 2SLGBTQIA+ communities
  • Develop practical skills to provide inclusive care to trans and 2SLGBTQIA+ people
