About the Gathering

February 16-19, 2023

Women Honoring Other Women (WHOW) is bringing women academic leaders together for A Gathering of Women in Education: Cultivating Hope and Equity. Grounded in appreciative inquiry, this gathering will immerse participants in exploring what it means to be women leaders in education, how we can promote equity and belonging, and appreciative inquiry in our daily practice, while fostering hope in these uncertain and ever-changing times. WHOW is designed for women in education at all levels, from those just beginning to those at the most senior levels. Participants will have the opportunity to network, acquire new tools and skills, while building relationships with dynamic women from around the world.

WHOW Gathering will convene in person February 16-19, 2023. We are so excited to finally have the chance to gather in person, after waiting two long years! Our daily agenda at the gathering will include topics and tools important to advancing women of all backgrounds in leadership within education.

The Women Honoring Other Women faculty mentors will be utilizing the tools and storytelling of their more than 80 collective years of experience in leadership in post-secondary education.
