On May 14, 2020, in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, YWCA Metro Vancouver convened a conversation with a group of women leaders from the region. The goal was to share learnings about the impact of the pandemic on organizations and communities, particularly women. Out of this conversation came a set of critical recommendations that were published on July 28, 2020 via the report, “COVID-19 Recovery: An Action Plan from Feminist Leaders across Metro Vancouver.”
