Moose Hide Campaign

The Moose Hide Campaign is an Indigenous-led, grassroots movement of men, boys and all Canadians—standing up to end violence against women and children. Half of all women in Canada have experienced at least one incident of violence since the age of 16; the percentage is much higher for Indigenous women. The Moose Hide Campaign provides us a way to come together and take a stand against violence towards women and children in our journey to reconciliation.

As an Ambassador Campus, we're working to build a safer society for all. You can get involved with the campaign by:

    • Request a Moose Hide pin from Human Resources by emailing hrgeneral@ontariotechu.ca.  Your pin will be sent to you via inter office mail.   It is estimated that by wearing the pin, five conversations are shared about the movement.
