Gender Based Violence in the Workplace and Vulnerability of Temporary Foreign Workers

The Cooper Institute, in collaboration with the PEI Rape and Sexual Assault Crisis Centre, is hosting a half-day symposium on supporting Temporary Foreign Workers (TFWs) facing sexual harassment, predation, and exploitation in the workplace. Taking place during International Development Week 2025, this discussion will bring together key organizations to explore concrete actions that protect TFWs from harm, empower them with knowledge of their rights, and advocate for systemic change.
