Building on Our Experience

Our work began in 2019 with research into women-inclusive HR practices and expanded into professional learning communities, capacity building, and direct support for company policy reform.

Today, CORE brings this experience together to help employers move from understanding workplace challenges to making practical, lasting improvements.

From Policies to Practice
