Past Conferences

CAPDHHE's annual conference has been connecting equity, diversity and inclusion (EDI) and human rights practitioners at Canadian colleges and universities since 1984. Each year, post-secondary professionals working in discrimination prevention, harassment prevention, and sexual violence response gather to share best practices, explore emerging trends, and strengthen their networks. Hosted at universities across Canada, our past conferences have featured leading voices in EDI, human rights law, and campus inclusion, giving attendees practical tools to drive meaningful change at their institutions. Whether you are an experienced EDI professional or new to the field, CAPDHHE's conference history reflects our ongoing commitment to safer, more equitable post-secondary campuses for all.
