Women Deliver Satellite Sessions

Women Deliver

From June 3 to 6, 2019, the Women Deliver conference is coming to Vancouver.

It’s the world’s biggest conference on gender equality and the health, rights, and wellbeing of girls and women.

Free workshops and discussions on gender equity

We're presenting the Women Deliver Satellite Sessions at the Vancouver Public Library’s Central Branch at 350 West Georgia St.

The satellite sessions are a complement to the Women Deliver 2019 conference, and aim to connect the local Vancouver audience to gender equity issues through free talks and workshops.

All sessions are free to attend, but require sign-up in advance. Childcare is provided free of charge and accessibility requirements reflected at all events, including sign language interpretation for noon hour and evening sessions. Please share any further accessibility requests you require during the registration process.
