Thank you Lorne Epstein for these resources
Women’s History Month is a time to celebrate the contributions and achievements of women throughout history and in contemporary society, while also raising awareness of the challenges they still face, including discrimination, gender-based violence, and unequal access to opportunities and resources.
I invite you to acknowledge the experiences of women and promote gender equality. Women’s History Month inspires us to take action towards creating a more equitable and just world for all women, where they can reach their full potential and live free from discrimination and oppression.
Here is a collection of videos, books, and articles you can share freely with your teams to support their learning journey. There are an infinite number of resources, and these are ones I curated.
