The AHF Virtual Summit spotlights Indigenous, Black, and racialized women leaders, changemakers, innovators, performers, and activists on our stages. It includes feature speakers, panels, performances and more.
Unfiltered is about standing uncompromisingly in the power of our voice.
Centering our truths. Speaking up about what Indigenous, Black, and racialized women really need to feel seen, heard, and valued in workplaces so we can thrive. It’s about boldly calling in leaders to collaborate with us to create meaningful change. Our voices hold a power that is stronger than any attempt to silence, censor or erase us. We are no longer minimizing our truths — we are unstoppable, unapologetic, and unfiltered.

AHF Virtual Summit 2022
Nov 19, 2022
Unstoppable
We are unshakable, undefeated,
and unstoppable.
Unstoppable is about redefining our narrative
Challenging the status quo that often confines Indigenous women, Black women, and women of colour to labels like underrepresented or underestimated. These labels have defined us, been justifications to hire us, and used as tools to evaluate us. But they are not full reflections of our capabilities and our potential. We are more; much more. We are unshakeable. We are undefeated. We are unstoppable.

Accelerate Her Future™ was founded on land and waters of the traditional territory of many nations including the Haudenosaunee, Anishnaabeg, the Attawandaron, and the Metis within the lands protected by the “Dish with One Spoon” wampum agreement. We respect Indigenous peoples’ deep connections to the land and waters, and affirm our commitment to continued learning while engaging our head, heart and hands to advance the TRC Calls to Action 92 and the MMIWG2S+ Calls to Justice 6.1, 11.1 and 15. We invite you to learn more about the history and presence of the Indigenous communities on the land and waters you gather on and work to build a better future for all and have included learning resources in your onboarding materials some of which are required for your completion. We encourage visitors to our website to learn about the land they are currently on.
