Davis Bay Hall: Women’s Campaign School

Learn what it takes to run for municipal council, school board or regional director in the upcoming elections in October 2026. Many women and gender-diverse people face barriers to their candidacy, or hesitate to step forward. We need candidates who represent the diversity of our neighbourhoods and understand what the job entails before they sign the nomination papers.

The day will focus on collaborative networking aimed at helping women and gender-diverse people to make a well-informed decision about running for elected office or be strong supporters of those who choose to run.

This is a non-partisan event. You MUST register in advance. Suggested donation $20 at the door.
