NEW EVENT: From coast to coast to coast, Canada is home to some of the world’s most incredible and well-known natural landscapes. And while numerous studies have proven the tangible benefits that being outdoors in nature can have for one’s health, Canadians need to be able to access the many trails,
parks, mountains, and coastlines across this great nation to enjoy them.
At Manulife Presents The Walrus Talks Nature, supported by Trans Canada Trail, leaders will come together to discuss the value of access to nature, including
the trails that act as a gateway to Canada’s diverse landscapes.
Join us, in Toronto or online, to discover the joys of nature and how we can access all it has to offer.
LEARNING WEBINAR:Gender-based violence is all around us—and the COVID-19 pandemic made many women and gender-diverse people even more vulnerable to violence and abuse at home. To help, the Canadian Women’s Foundation created the Signal for Help—a simple one-handed gesture that can be used to reach out for support without leaving a digital trace.
Join The Walrus and the Canadian Women’s Foundation for a special session on how you can help as a Signal for Help Responder. You’ll learn more about the Signal for Help, different forms of abuse, and, most importantly, how to respond, in a safe, supportive way, to someone facing abuse.
