In the federal public service, we celebrate Pride!
The Fifth Annual Public Service Pride Week takes place from August 21 to 25, 2023. In light of the alarming increase in hate and discrimination towards 2SLGBTQIA+ communities, particularly targeting our transgender, non-binary and gender-diverse colleagues, celebrating Pride in the public service takes on an even greater significance. Employees from all walks of life will come together to honour and recognize the contributions of the 2SLGBTQIA+ communities and allies in the federal public service. During this Pride Week, the Canada School of Public Service is hosting a series of key events, including the Public Service Pride Awards, to mark this year's theme "Taking Action to Create a More Inclusive Public Service." During the events hosted by the School, attendees will have the opportunity to learn about important issues, including access to safe inclusive washrooms, name and gender marker change in Government of Canada systems, intersectionality and allyship awareness, and the history of the LGBT Purge. In addition to these events, other federal organizations will host independently organized events that will be open to all public servants. This event series is presented in partnership with the Public Service Pride Network.
--- À la fonction publique fédérale, nous célébrons la Fierté! La cinquième semaine annuelle de la Fierté à la fonction publique aura lieu du 21 au 25 août 2023. Devant la hausse alarmante de la haine et de la discrimination envers les personnes 2ELGTBQIA+, en particulier les personnes transgenres, non binaires, et de la pluralité des genres, la célébration de la Fierté dans la fonction publique revêt un importance encore plus grande. À l'occasion de la Semaine de la Fierté, l'École de la fonction publique du Canada organise une série d'événements, dont la cérémonie de remise des prix de la Fierté à la fonction publique, qui s'inscrivent dans le thème de cette année « Agir pour bâtir une fonction publique plus inclusive ». Durant les événements organisés par l'École, les participants et participantes auront l'occasion d'en apprendre sur des enjeux importants, notamment l'accès à des salles de toilettes inclusives, le changement de nom et de marqueur de genre dans les systèmes du gouvernement du Canada, l'intersectionnalité et l'alliance inclusive, et l'histoire de la purge LGBT. À ces événements s'ajouteront des événements distincts organisés par d'autres organisations fédérales offerts à l'ensemble de la fonction publique. Cette série d'événements est présentée en partenariat avec le Réseau de la Fierté à la fonction publique.

It was hailed as an intellectual tour-de-force. However, this same non-periodic tiling has been discovered on mosques and madrassahs throughout the Middle-East and Central Asia, dating back 700 years. This lecture looks at the geometric basis of this tiling, and the breathtaking examples throughout the Muslim world. Registration is not required, please use the MS Teams link to join (see below).

Dear GC Federal Public Servants, The Interdepartmental Network on Diversity and Employment Equity and the Anti Racism Ambassadors Network are please to announce a new GC Network led by Jean-Emmanuel Jean-Marie called the GC Data Equity Network that aims to bring together public servants seeking to use data to help identify and remove workplace barriers. To learn more, please join us for the inaugural meeting on September 28th from 2:00-3:00 PM EST. The GC Data Equity Network is a new initiative that aims to merge the data community with anti-racism and equity related initiatives ongoing in response to the Call to Action forward direction. The Network is dedicated furthering the use of data in advancing GC wide initiatives to dismantle systemic barriers. Its focus is to use data to identify equity related gaps to support colleagues working on the policies that will remove them. We aim for an inclusive, anti-racist and equitable public service for all employees. The Network will serve as a collaborative platform where individuals and teams can actively engage in advancing equity. It will aim to be an enabling presence in allowing members to autonomously utilize GC data to uncover and address systemic disparities in outcomes, particularly in the hiring, retention, and promotional processes faced by equity-seeking groups. Who Should Attend?: We welcome the participation of all GC Federal Public Servants who share a passion for data and a commitment to equity and inclusion.

| CSC’s Black Employee Network BEN | VISION
To provide Black employees at Correctional Service Canada support that will allow them access to resources, workshops, guidance to key training opportunities, information sessions, mentors/sponsors and networking across regions and sectors. MISSION To promote the career advancement of Black employees within the Correctional Service of Canada by connecting them to opportunities, resources and networking prospects in order to support and empower Black employees to achieve their potential. By creating an atmosphere of encouragement in which black employees can prosper and flourish, it is our goal to ensure that the BEN will always be a safe space for employees to share their lived experiences and knowledge. We are not an advocacy group but a L.I.F.E. (Learning, Insight, Friendship, Education/Encouragement) group. We will endeavour to bridge the gap between connecting black employees to resources that will aid in furthering their careers, raise concerns to upper management, a space to share successes and triumphs. |
