ZC of Hamilton1

March 3 @ 9:00 am - 10:00 am EST

Join Zonta Club Hamilton 1 in an Intimate Conversation with

Catherine McKenna

In Person:  Hamilton, ON – exact location will be sent after registration. Light breakfast will be served.
Online: Google Meet will be sent after registration
This will be a conversation style dialogue. One of our objectives is to ask how we can operationalize Climate Justice initiatives in our own communities. 

Catherine McKenna is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Climate and Nature Solutions.  She is Canada’s former minister of environment and climate change, and minister of infrastructure.  She is chair of the UN Secretary General’s Expert Group Net Zero, founded Women Leading on Climate, practiced law in Canada and Indonesia, established a not-for-profit focused on providing justice for all, and worked for the United Nations peacekeeping mission in Timor-Leste.

From Olympic dreams to the frontlines of politics and climate action, Run Like A Girl charts McKenna’s personal and political journey – from leading Canada’s climate plan to withstanding sexist attacks as “Climate Barbie.” Through a unique scrapbook-style format, McKenna blends candid personal stories, political insights, and reflections on motherhood, ambition, and activism.  McKenna recounts her fight for climate policy, the ups and downs of public service, the tough decision to leave politics, and her mission to empower women in leadership.
