LAUNCHER INTO TRADES
HER FUTURE IN TRADES
Trades jobs remain predominantly held by men. First Peoples Development Inc. (FPDI), a Manitoba-based organization, runs a program called LauncHER into Trades, which supports women in pursuing careers in trades with the goal of changing the future of this male-dominated industry. In collaboration with Manitoba employers, institutions, unions, and with funding from the Canadian government, FPDI offers tailored support plans for tradeswomen, helping guide them toward achieving red seal status. FPDI plays a crucial role in assisting women in reaching their goals, and for International Women's Day 2025, the IWD magazine will highlight two of these inspiring women to celebrate their achievements.
