The MPI Toronto Chapter DEI Committee is thrilled to announce the 2025 Lunch and Learn schedule of events. This event series aims to educate, inspire, and foster meaningful conversations within the meetings and events industry.

Last December, adn. Conferenciers sponsored a Lunch and Learn entitled, “Prepare Now for Black History Month”. That event delivered a conversation around how to foster inclusivity and equity in the event industry with Ayana O’Shun and Émilie Nicholas. The session highlighted that event professionals can be advocates in their workplace and communities. Building on the success of this event, we are happy to launch our 2025 event series with more engaging expert speakers:

  • March 24 – International Women's Rights Day with Virginie Delalande | Register here
  • June 3 – Pride Month with Chris Bergeron (elle/la) | Register here
  • September 22 – National Truth and Reconciliation Day with Mélanie Paul | Register here
  • December 15 – DEI Best Practices | Register here

The DEI Committee wanted to offer a platform for members to learn about and discuss critical DEI topics, thereby enhancing their cultural awareness and event planning skills. By integrating diversity into event planning, MPI Toronto aims to create more inclusive and representative events.

This unique offering underscores MPI Toronto's commitment to fostering a community grounded in DEI principles. Members are encouraged to share this invitation with fellow MPI members to maximize participation and impact. Join us for these enriching sessions and be part of a movement towards a more inclusive industry.
