Brought to you by the Indigenous Sport & Wellness Ontario (ISWO) Women & Girls Committee, this virtual conference Sharing Our Strength is aimed at providing a platform for some of our Indigenous female role models to share their success stories with our Indigenous First Nations, Metis, and Inuit women and girls across Ontario. Presentations will be on the following themes: Business & Entrepreneurship, Sports & Fitness, and Culture & Identity. It is our hope that these women and girls leave the conference feeling empowered with a new sense of confidence in their ability to see themselves as a leader and leave feeling motivated for their next chapter in life.
