Pathways for Success – Women's Economic Empowerment

ICTC’s Pathways for Success initiative helps employers to address systemic barriers by encouraging more equitable and effective sharing of resources and decision making to support women.

While more women are taking on science, engineering, and technology roles, international research shows that 52% of highly qualified women quit these roles mid-career. Systemic challenges, hostile company cultures, high-stress work, and family pressures are cited as reasons.

ICTC's Feminist Response research study explores the challenges women face but also offers solutions for supporting and retaining women in Canada's technology sector.

ICTC's Pathways for Success – Women's Economic Empowerment project combines organizational knowledge, research, and consultation to develop a toolkit that helps organizations address systemic barriers. The project encourages collaboration and more equitable and effective sharing of resources to accelerate systemic change in support of women.

ICTC works with its extensive network of partners, industry, academia, governments, NGOs, and several thousand employers to explore solutions across Canada.
