May 17th has been recognized in Canada as the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia (IDAHOTB). This significant day serves as an important reminder to honour the diversity and resilience of 2SLGBTQIA+ communities worldwide, while also shedding light on the persistent discrimination and challenges they experience.
At NSWOCC, we stand firm in our commitment to Equity, Diversity, Inclusion, and Accessibility (EDIA) as foundational values that define our organization. We strive for inclusivity by actively engaging and welcoming all voices, especially those who have historically been marginalized or excluded. By embracing these principles, we can work together to cultivate an environment where every member is valued, respected, and provided with equitable opportunities for growth and advancement.
As we observe International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia, and Biphobia, let us renew our dedication to fostering a culture of equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility within our community and beyond. Together, let us celebrate the richness of our membership and continue our collective efforts to build a more inclusive and supportive environment for everyone.
In solidarity,
NSWOCC
