About the Conference
“Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion: Real Impact for the Real World” is the volunteer management conference presented by AL!VE, Better Impact, and VMPC (Volunteer Management Professionals of Canada). Our current streaming event will consist of four 60 minute segments consisting of a 20 minute presentation followed by moderated discussion with the other presenters (think Ted talk meets late night TV), including responding to questions from the audience.
This unique event will broadcast live on October 20, 2021.
The broadcast will be streamed live to more than 50 remote locations in the United States and Canada, with the likelihood of an audience of 1000 or more. One of the goals of this event is to provide quality, high level professional development events in local areas where access and resources may be limited to local associations of volunteer engagement professionals, volunteer centers, or other entities with an interest in professional development for those who engage volunteers.
