'''Amending the Pledge to Promote Inclusivity, Diversity and Anti-Racism'''
 +
 +
In taking the Panel Pledge, pledges demonstrate committed action to promoting inclusivity for Indigenous Employees, Black Employees and Racialized Employees, 2SLGBTQQIA+ Employees, Persons with a Disability, Women and Religious Minorities in all GC events while combatting all forms of discrimination and amplifying the voices of systemically marginalized persons globally.
 +
 +
In taking the #'''GCPanelPledge''', one commits to:
 +
 +
-Requesting confirmation of other panelists / speakers / participants, and reserving the right to decline participation in events where Indigenous Employees, Black Employees and Racialized Employees, 2SLGBTQIA+ Employees, Persons with a Disability and Women are excluded.
 +
 +
-Refusing to participate in homogenous panels. If they do choose to participate, they commit to noting the lack of balance on the panel and highlighting the panel pledge.
 +
 +
-Asking event organizers what they are doing to ensure diversity at their events.
 +
 +
-Promoting employment equity, diversity, inclusion, equality and Anti-Racism in their own organization.
 +
 +
'''Speakers List:'''
 +
 +
The Panel Pledge aims to support individuals, networks and organizations who create events by making accessible a list of diverse speakers, panelists and moderators. Event organizers at the local, regional or national level will be able to use the Speakers List to connect with diverse Canadian public sector talent. The Speakers list will contain information on prospective speakers, including the topics they are passionate about, their contact information and their department or agency. It will also allow them to indicate which equity or equity-deserving group they belong to. Event planners will use this information to ensure that they book diverse guests for their events. Employees interested in signing up to be a guest speaker can complete the following form: https://forms.gle/GHoQSbPehKiX3WWw7
 +
 +
Aside from the Speakers List, Event organizers can also connect with one of the many [[GC Diversity Networks - Réseaux de la-diversité-du GC|GC Diversity Networks]] that operate across the Government of Canada in order to select a panelist from a diverse background.
