“Valuing People: developing techniques that foster inclusion, equity and diversity and lead to greater project success”
Katherina Tarnai-Lokhorst
Dr. Katherina Tarnai-Lokhorst, P.Eng., FEC, FGC (Hon), an award-winning social science researcher and educator of mechanical engineering at Camosun College and the University of British Columbia, is a passionate leader in self-regulation and policy. Katherina’s technical specializations include aircraft design, manufacturing processes and project management. Dedicated to creating an increasingly inclusive culture in engineering, Katherina applies her mastery of interdisciplinary studies by developing policies and delivering courses that instill learners at all levels with a deep understanding of the impact of technology on society and a passion to make the world a better place for all.
We welcome back Dr. Tarnai-Lokhorst who spoke to us at our last face-to-face dinner meeting in March. This time, she will take us on a deeper dive, leveraging the power of Zoom for a more interactive workshop on techniques and tools we can use to ensure equity in our projects.
