We are making change and building a stronger labour movement that recognizes the struggles of all people facing inequality in the workplace and society. The Rise Up! conference is an opportunity for union activists to come together and explore equality and fairness for all.
We can empower each other by acknowledging our struggles, celebrating our gains, and sharing our stories. As human rights activists, we celebrate diversity and use our collective power to create real change for all Canadians.
Share your story. Be the change. Live the change.
The Rise Up! CLC Human Rights Conference brings our movement’s diverse activists and allies together in a unique space for forward-thinking strategies and skills. Rise Up! will explore ways to renew the labour movement, celebrate our diversity, and better understand the changing nature of work.
Together we will empower and engage workers to build a stronger movement based on equity and inclusion, and to be inspired by innovation and creativity.
The conference will be held on the Algonquin Anishinabek territory at the Shaw Centre in Ottawa, Ontario from October 20 to 23, 2016.
