The University of Lethbridge celebrated the International Women’s Day with a Leadership Conference. For three years in a row, the institution has been recognizing the important role of women in society.
This year, the theme is Disrupting the Superwoman Narrative: Embracing the Power of Rest. Martha Mathurin-Moe, Vice-Provost of Accessibility, Belonging & Community at the University of Lethbridge, says the theme centres on how the superwoman archetype is not always empowering but can be full of hidden expectations and unseen emotional and mental labour.
