employment equity labor economics focus groupThe Green Career Centre’s mission is to prepare underrepresented youth for green careers. With a focus on supporting BIPOC, newcomers and women, the Green Career Centre works by and for these communities to bridge the gap between equitable, accessible and transparent social and environmental employment opportunities. With a climate justice lens and through ongoing consultations and focus groups, the Green Career Centre bridges the disconnect between these underserved communities and green careers in sustainability. We offer resources, events, and a strong network of support in order to integrate underserved communities into the green labour market in what is currently Canada.
Students will have several tasks to complete including:
- Researching content on climate justice and employment equity
- Developing written guides on the content
- Create workshop presentation materials such as slides and scripts
- Weekly office hours
- Weekly one hour check-in
- Ongoing mentorship and career coaching
