York College of Applied Studies is excited to join the 50-30 CHALLENGE an initiative by the Government of Canada. 🇨🇦
The goal of the program is to challenge Canadian organizations to increase the representation and inclusion of diverse groups within their workplaces while highlighting the benefits of giving all Canadians a seat at the table.
➡️ The 50 – 30 Challenge asks that organizations aspire to two goals:
✔️ Gender parity (50% women and/or nonbinary people) on Canadian boards and/or in senior management; and
✔️ Significant representation (30%) on Canadian boards and/or senior management of members of other equity-deserving groups, including those who identify as Racialized, Black, and/or People of Colour (“Visible Minorities”), People with disabilities (including invisible and episodic disabilities), 2SLGBTQ+ and/or gender and sexually diverse individuals, and Aboriginal and/or Indigenous Peoples. The program and participants recognize Indigenous Peoples, including First Nations, Métis and Inuit, as founding Peoples of Canada and underrepresented in positions of economic influence and leadership.

York College Land Acknowledgement:
We acknowledge that the land that York College is on is
the traditional territory of many nations, including the Mississaugas of
the Credit, the Anishnaabe, the Haudenosaunee and the Wendat peoples
and is now home to many Indigenous people from across Turtle Island. We
also acknowledge that Toronto is covered by Treaty 13 signed with the
Mississaugas of the Credit, and the Williams Treaties signed with
multiple Mississaugas and Chippewa bands. York College has settled on this land and recognizes the
importance of respecting the voices and history of all Indigenous
communities. This territory is within the Dish with One Spoon Wampum
Belt Covenant, an agreement between the Haudenosaunee, the Anishnaabe
and allied nations to share and care for the regions around the Great
Lakes. We are grateful to work on this land.
