About the event
We are pleased to announce that our national Unifor Pride Conference will take place at the Unifor Family Education Centre in Port Elgin from April 28th – 30th, 2023. The Pride Conference is a bilingual event for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, two-spirit, intersex (LGBTQ2SI) members to gain skills and build knowledge. Allies’ activism and support is important for campaigns and progress year-round, but this conference is a space for members of the LGBTQ2SI community to work together.
Conference delegates will have the opportunity to hear about some of the tremendous work being done within our union and our communities. Through participation in skills-building workshops and conversations hosted by LGBTQ2SI activists and leaders, delegates will gain knowledge and build relationships they can bring back to their local union and to advocate for equity.
This conference will address current challenges, threats, and opportunities for queer and trans workers and give space for LGBTQ2SI Unifor members to build a supportive, inclusive union movement and more equitable local unions.
