Advocacy and Action
ETFO is a leader among teachers' federations on equity issues, particularly in its support for women's participation and leadership. The ETFO Executive has adopted this definition of equity: “ ETFO recognizes that we live in a society characterized by individual and systemic discrimination against particular groups. Within this context, ETFO defines equity as fairness achieved through proactive measures which result in equality for all.”
ETFO members are involved in their union, in education, in the political world, and in the world around them. ETFO members are dedicated to making this a better world for their colleagues, for their students, and for others in their communities here and around the world.
