What does the future hold for women entering and transforming the workforce? How can we ensure that the next generation inherits not only opportunities, but the knowledge of the struggles that made those opportunities possible? What will be the impact of AI on women’s work and women’s voices? How can we ensure that self-employed women are protected and engaged? Where do women fit in the new economy, with an emphasis on major projects and infrastructure, and economic inclusion? What can we learn from history that helps us lead new economic forecasts?
This is a call to action for anyone committed to building workplaces where all women can thrive. Speakers to be announced.
Beyond the Glass Ceiling follows two very successful and thoughtful panel discussions, Picket Lines and Power: Women Who Reshaped Work and Voice Rising: Activism in the Modern Workplaces. Click to see the video recordings.
Feminist scholars and activists have long shown how silence, omission, and distortion shape dominant accounts of the past, especially in relation to women’s labour, leadership, and resistance. Understanding these histories offers more than recognition—it provides a foundation for making wise decisions about the future of work, helping us confront inequities, reimagine labour practices, and build systems that value the full range of women’s contributions
The Women’s History Project invites you to join the third session, Beyond the Glass Ceiling: Designing Tomorrow’s Workplaces, in a powerful three-part webinar series that confronts these gaps head-on.
From Resistance to Redesign series amplifies the mission of The Women’s History Project and our podcast, 1000 Voices, 1000 Stories: to bring women’s experiences out of the shadows and into the centre of public conversation. This session is for anyone committed to gender justice: Students, educators, researchers, labour organizers, advocates and activists, policymakers, and emerging leaders who believe that understanding women’s history is essential to transforming the future.
Hope you will join us!
