Who will be at the table

Activate Altitude is focused on progressive Canadian executive leaders in Labour, Advocacy, and Technology. It will include labour leaders (directors and above), national advocacy leaders, and digital leaders who hold strategic vision in the progressive sector. 

We define progressives as the movement to shift the status quo toward a more just, sustainable, and inclusive society that supports the health and well-being of the planet and all living beings.
