Workplace bullying and equality will be the topics of conversations for Greater Langley Chamber of Commerce’s International Women’s Day event.
An online webinar titled Equality is not a choice will be presented by Camille McMillan-Rambharat – an activist and career development coach.

During the Tuesday, March 8 virtual event, McMillan-Rambharat will share her personal experiences as a wife, mother, and advocate. As a target of workplace bullying and harassment herself, McMillan-Rambharat will talk about her journey, promoting the view that equality is a fundamental human right and not a “gift offered to women and minorities.”
“She is a highly intelligent lady, and will help us bring more awareness in the community when it comes to workplace bullying and harassment,” said Bernice Hebbard, chamber events co-ordinator.
As an advocate on several child rights and gender issues, McMillan-Rambharat once ran a campaign to bring an end to Trinidad and Tobago’s archaic child marriage laws.
“We are looking forward to this event and hopefully community members will join us,” said Hebbard.
