On March 19th the Chairs of the OCUFA Collective Bargaining and Status of Women committees co-hosted a conference call on the campus climate for female chief negotiators in our member associations. This initiative is part of a broader listening tour undertaken by the Status of Women Committee to hear current concerns associated with gender and related equity issues on campuses around Ontario. The SWC tour will culminate in a workshop, Navigating the Academy, in Toronto on May 4th. The Collective Bargaining Committee will take up these issues as part of its workshop, Building Member Solidarity, in Toronto on May 23rd. If you are an Ontario faculty association member and are interested in either of these workshops, please contact your local faculty association for more information.
