Through the 50-30 Challenge Destination Greater Victoria is committing to achieve at least 50 per cent gender diversity and 30 per cent underrepresented groups in Canada which include racialized persons, those who identify as LGBTQ2, and people living with disabilities, to the board and senior management levels.
