SUMMARY:Rainbow Registered Presents: GENDERCRAFT
DESCRIPTION:A Deeper Dive on Gender Identity & Gender Expression\n\n\n\n\n\nGender Identity Fundamentals \n\n\n\nThis module is primarily concerned with deepening understanding of the term “gender identity”. It discusses five major components of gender identity: sense of self\, community identity\, societal influences\, biology\, and time. \n\n\n\nThe module proceeds to discuss intersectionality and the ways gender interacts with other aspects of identity. There is a brief discussion of pronouns\, and the distinction between pronouns and identity. The module continues with a detailed examination of cisgender privilege\, to ground the theoretical discussion and prepare participants to explore the scenarios in Module II.  \n\n\n\nGender Identity Fundamentals concludes by addressing current political context for trans people internationally and nationally\, and possible actions. \n\n\n\n\n\nEliot Newton (they|them)GENDERBANDIT\n\n\n\nSession Schedule:1:00-1:10 – Intro & Housekeeping1:10-1:25 – Gender Identity in Depth1:25-1:35 – Pronouns1:35-2:05 – Cisgender Privilege2:05-2:15 – Next Steps & Wrap-up2:15-2:30 – Q&A \n\n\n\nSeries schedule:February 23\, 2026 – 1-2:30pm – Gender Identity FundamentalsMarch 2\, 2026 – 1-2:30pm – Gender Identity ApplicationsMarch 9\, 2026 – 1-2:30pm – Gender Expression FundamentalsMarch 16\, 2026 – 1-2:30pm – Gender Expression Applications \n\n\n\nNote: facilitator is bilingual though facilitation will be primarily in EN

SUMMARY:Navigating 2SLGBTQI+ Diversity & Inclusion in the Tourism Industry (ACOA)
DESCRIPTION:This training is funded by the Government of Canada through the Atlantic Canada Opportunities Agency (ACOA). \n\n\n\nThe global 2SLGBTQI+ travel market is valued at more than US$200B annually. Canadian destinations are well-positioned to grow their share of this market. But in order to be successful\, destinations and operators must ensure that 2SLGBTQI+ customers feel welcome\, accepted\, and served in a way that exceeds their expectations and accommodates their needs.  \n\n\n\nTo support efforts in developing market-ready products\, CQCC’s Navigating 2SLGBTQI+ Diversity and Inclusion in the Tourism Industry helps tourism-based businesses learn about 2SLGBTQI+ inclusion and how to effectively understand\, value\, and serve 2SLGBTQI+ customers and employees.
