Welcome to the Prouder, Fiercer, Queerer 2026 Gender & Sexuality Alliance (GSA) conference, a province-wide gathering dedicated to uplifting and connecting 2SLGBTQ+ youth and allied educators (Students eligible for participation: Current or future GSA members, ages 14 to 19/Grades 9 to 12) across Manitoba. In a time of rising anti-2SLGBTQ+ rhetoric and violence, this theme serves as a bold reminder that our students find their greatest strength when they believe in themselves and their community. We are building on our history by creating a dedicated space to celebrate queer culture and strengthen our collective commitment to safer, more affirming schools.
Throughout this full-day event in Winnipeg, participants will engage in youth workshops, educator training, and community-strengthening activities designed to honor our history and protect our future. This registration portal serves to deepen the connections within our vibrant ecosystem of advocates as we work toward a more inclusive province.
