Please join us at RDR’s 6th AGM and Conference!
The Regional Diversity Roundtable (RDR) will be hosting their Annual General Meeting and Conference on Wednesday June 20, 2018. This full-day, annually-anticipated event aims to be highly engaging and informative, with diverse participants from organizations and communities.
Our two keynote speakers - Arezoo Najibzadeh and Jenny Okonkwo - will spark thought, and two simultaneously - held capacity building sessions will be held during the day to enrich participants' DEI knowledge and skills. Anita Stellinga, Regional Executive GTA Integration at United Way Greater Toronto will be leading one of the two capacity building sessions!
This event promises to be an excellent opportunity to network and take back relevant resources! A breakfast and lunch will be provided. We encourage all to register ASAP as it is a sold-out event annually.
