About our programming

IGEPS holds a diverse range of in-person and virtual events each year to educate, engage, and foster a consortium of students, faculty, public sector practitioners, and community members interested in gender equity in the public sector.

We also develop and conduct customized workshops for practitioners, research organizations, and student groups to learn more about or sharpen their existing gender equity toolkits. IGEPS can provide half-day to week-long workshops and training on relevant and timely gender equity topics that can be implemented in your organization. Please contact us below if you are interested in developing a workshop together.
