Women in Canadian Geotechnique
In 2018, the CGS Heritage Committee Task Force produced a poster series on "Some of the First Women in Geotechnique in Canada". The posters highlighted 12 women’s professional careers, achievements, involvement with the CGS, experiences within a male-dominated profession, and advice to other women in the industry.
The posters were on display during GeoEdmonton 2018 and highlighted as a presentation during the Heritage Luncheon.
