WIL in partnership with the Province of Ontario is running the GREEN WORKS project. This project shall help industry in Ontario attract skilled female workers and bring together key stakeholders for collaborative approach and strategy building. The project will also travel across the province to create awareness of green career opportunities for young women.

The centerpiece for the project is the GREEN WORKS 2009 – Woman in Environmental Occupations Conference held in Ottawa on Oct 29-30th. The conference shall bring together women from across the province to share knowledge, best practices and establish networks that will foster their leadership development.

WIL is inviting employers, industry, educators and first nations to participate in the GREEN WORKS 2009 conference. For more info email us at: info@womeninleadership.ca or contact Laura Booker (Coordinator) at laura@womeninleadership.ca
