Region Conference

2025 Theme: What If You Fly?

In this time of such global turmoil – the climate crisis, wars and conflicts, and the frightening political climate in many countries – it is women from every continent who can and must be the changemakers who will save our planet.

Keynote Speaker

Yabome Gilpin-Jackson

VP of People, Equity and Inclusion, Simon Fraser University

“Global Women as Changemakers”

Featuring Melissa Dealy and Billie Aadmi from Girls Matter, a BC organization dedicated to educating girls. Melissa and Billie will be sharing the story of Girls Matter and the great work they are doing in Uganda and Kenya.

We have a special treat at our Live Your Dream luncheon on Saturday – Alice Pu, an SI Surrey-Delta Violet Richardson Award winner, is going to share her experiences of learning to fly gliders and inspiring other young girls to take to the skies. Alice is the literal and figurative embodiment of “What if you fly?”

In addition to our great line-up of speakers, we have so many fun things planned for you. Please join the Western Canada Region Board, SIA President Ginger Cole, and SIA Chief Impact and Engagement Officer Iesha D. Brown in sunny Tsawwassen for a great weekend of learning and fun.
