Description

Bonita Zarrillo, Chamber Member and City of Coquitlam Councillor, recently attended the United Nations 60th session of the Commission of the Status of Women in New York, as a representative of Soroptomists of the Tri-Cities.

The Priority Theme of the session was "Women's empowerment and its link to sustainable development".  The Review Theme was "Elimination and prevention of all forms of violence against women and girls".

Please join us to give Bonita a platform for debriefing our community on her learnings and to join in the discussion of how we can enhance the economic development of the Tri-Cities by ensuring women are supported as fully participating citizens of our community.

*This event is open to our community as a whole, and we encourage the participation of both women and men.  Registration is required, and space is limited.
