THANK YOU to our Coalition Working Group
The Gender Equality Coalition of Ontario engaged a diverse group of London and area residents, who came together to develop the Terms of Reference and Policies that will guide the Coalition going forward.
This devoted group met from January until June of 2020 and completed the tasks as requested. Our heartfelt thanks goes out to this group of dedicated and informed individuals for their months of hard work.

Racism & Gender Discrimination
The Gender Equality Coalition of Ontario stands strong against racism and gender discrimination. The events of the past weeks remind us that systemic racism is a form of violence that must be eliminated. We see the effects of racism daily in our communities through racialized poverty and unequal access to justice and all forms of healthcare.
This is an important moment in time. As individuals, as communities, and as a coalition dedicated to empowering Equality, we need to challenge ourselves to undo the effects of systemic racism in our society. We must acknowledge and become aware of our own biases. The Coalition is committed to doing the work to be an ally and to amplify voices of those who need to be heard.
We will never have Equality until we are all Equal !

Equality Coalition
The Coalition was a result of funding to The Canadian Federation of University Women London Club (CFUW London) to start the Gender Equality Coalition of Ontario. This funding was through a Capacity Building Grant by the Department of Women and Gender Equality Canada.
There are many things to do before this Coalition will be up and running. The next step is to established a Working Group to create Terms of Reference or By-Laws and Operating Procedures or Regulations. If you would like to be considered for the Working Group, please complete the “Get in Touch” steps below and let us know how you would like to contribute to the Coalition.
With Thanks,
Linda Davis, Executive Director – Programming
Dani Bartlett, Executive Director – Advocacy
We support groups in the London area working for gender equality and in particular have recently been able to form a partnership with the Champions of Change in London. This school club started at AB Lucas in 2018 and has already completed many projects aimed at helping women in our community to rise to their full potential. These young individuals are making a difference locally and exemplify the ideals of the Coalition. Through this partnership we will be able to enhance our connections within the London community. We have plans to work together on a variety of upcoming events.
Check back on our social media and website to learn about upcoming events with the Champions of Change. To learn more about the Champions of Change, click below!
