As we countdown to Congress 2019, we salute the inspirational leaders who joined TIAC’s spearheaded initiative to advance women in tourism, as co-signatories to the Catalyst Accord 2022 - Accelerating the Advancement of Women. 

In this edition, we salute: 

Philip Mondor President & CEO Tourism HR Canada

“As an organization that works on behalf of the people that power our dynamic tourism sector, Tourism HR Canada is fully committed to the advancement of women in tourism. Our sector employs a higher percentage of women than the full labour force, and it is imperative that the executive level reflects this. Providing a world-class destination for travellers requires innovative ideas from diverse leadership; the Catalyst Accord 2022 provides support to achieve this. We are pleased to join other tourism stakeholders as signatories on this initiative.”
