SWF National Advancing Women in Conservation Summit

Oct 6, 2022 | 9:20 AM

The Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation is excited to announce the FIRST-EVER National Advancing Women in Conservation (AWIC) Summit, taking place November 4-6, 2022 in Saskatoon, SK!

While women make up well over half of the workforce and volunteer pool in most conservation endeavours, women are routinely absent or underrepresented when it comes down to board and decision-making roles, and countless others still face stigma in the field.

This fall, join other individuals from across the country in building a better culture for women working and volunteering in conservation.

This event is open to women and men who currently work/volunteer/attend school, or plan to work/volunteer/attend school within the conservation and environmental sectors.

This weekend summit will focus on highlighting women’s unique challenges and contributions to conservation, action planning, and skill building while networking with women working and volunteering in the conservation and environmental sectors.
