A French message follows / le français suit :

The TBS Social Media team is working on the department's social media campaign for Women's History Month 2021, taking place from October 1 – 31.🎉 We would like to work with our colleagues in equity and professional networks to publish first-person testimonials on the Your Government at Work Facebook account, TBS corporate Twitter, the thematic Digital Government Twitter account, and/or TBS LinkedIn to mark this commemorative event.

This year’s theme is still to be determined by Women and Gender Equality Canada; however, we are open to you taking the piece in whatever direction you prefer. For example, your submission could be used an opportunity to issue a message of solidarity and support to women, trans women, genderfluid and non-binary people in the Government of Canada. Alternatively, you could choose to share a more personal story about what Women's History Month means to you.

The questions outlined in the document below may help as writing prompts. Feel free to answer them directly and have the TBS Social Media team create a short article based on your responses. Or you can incorporate your responses into a short paragraph yourself!

1️⃣ Post by Meagan Commonda for National Public Service Week

2️⃣ TBS tweet by Christopher Lawton and Jason Marshall for Pride Season

3️⃣ TBS LinkedIn post by Adwoa Gyasi-Nimako for Emancipation Day

TO SUBMIT:

Once ready, please send your post to the TBS social media team.

You can include your name, role, department and pronouns with your submission. Photos are also welcome!
