The 50 – 30 Challenge was an initiative between the Government of Canada, Canadian businesses, and diversity organizations. The goal of the program was to challenge Canadian organizations to increase the representation and inclusion of diverse groups within their workplaces while highlighting the benefits of giving all Canadians a seat at the table. This program has been supported by Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada.
