About W3+

W3+ (Waterloo Womxn + Nonbinary Wednesdays – formerly W3) is a community of womxn and nonbinary faculty, staff members, graduate students, and postdoctoral fellows at the University of Waterloo. Normally a monthly gathering, W3+ is currently hosting a Microsoft Team as a space in which womxn and nonbinary members of the UW community can connect and support each other. The Team features a range of channels with different purposes, from discussing equity issues in the academy, to celebrating accomplishments and reminding each other to take breaks throughout the day. W3+ also operates a mailing list for those not using Teams and welcomes new womxn and nonbinary members on either platform at any time (find out how to join).

W3+ events are sponsored by the Faculty Association and Staff Association and coordinated by a committee of faculty, staff, post-doctoral researchers, and graduate students.
