Women in Aerospace Canada

Published purpose

1.1. Through this 20 months systemic change project, Women in Aerospace Canada will help advance women’s economic prosperity and representation in leadership and decision-making roles through systemic change. Specifically, the project will address systemic barriers to increase the number of women in high-paying positions and facilitate their progression into leadership roles within Canada's aerospace sector by developing a scalable corporate auditing protocol to understand the driving factors within a corporation impacting the hiring, retention and progression of women in the aerospace sector. The audit will be deployed to four corporations in the sector (Ontario, QC, Prairies and Atlantic) and the results will be measured and assessed to develop recommendations. An external evaluator will measure and assess the impact of the systemic change project.
