United for
Gender Equality:
Stronger Together
Gender Equality Week 2023
Gender Equality Week 2023 takes place from September 17 to 23.
The theme this year is United for Gender Equality: Stronger Together. It highlights Canada’s commitment to inclusivity and equality by recognizing and celebrating the diversity within the country. These diverse identities shape every individual and represent the richness of our collective diversity. The theme encourages unity among individuals regardless of their gender, sexual orientation, racial background, or level of education.
Gender Equality is a strength in building a fair country and a strong future.
Check out the statement and video from the Honourable Marci Ien, Minister for Women and Gender Equality and Youth, to mark Gender Equality Week.
