AFPA launches #WomenInForestry social media campaign

The Alberta Forest Products Association is proud to announce the launch of its #WomenInForestry social media campaign. The campaign will profile five dedicated women who have chosen diverse careers in the forest industry. Join us as we meet a forestry student, a CEO, a mill manager, a power engineer, and a reliability engineer.

“We are honoured to celebrate the contributions of women to Alberta’s forest industry,” said AFPA president and CEO Paul Whittaker. “Over the past decade, the number of women choosing forestry careers has increased substantially. This means that not only is our workforce stronger today, but the workforce of tomorrow will also be stronger. Today’s women leaders serve as role models for the leaders of tomorrow.”

The campaign will feature five video profiles. Videos and other content can be found on the AFPA’s Twitter and Facebook pages, as well as the Association’s website.
