The Coalition Against Workplace Discrimination(CAWD) is an initiative of the Black Class Action Secretariat(BCAS), formed to address the urgent need for a unified effort to combat systemic discrimination within Canada's public service. CAWD was created to bring together a broad coalition of organizations, including labor unions, advocacy groups, and community organizations, all dedicated to challenging and dismantling the pervasive injustices that continue to affect public service employees, particularly those from Black, Indigenous, and racialized communities. 2, record 1, English, - Coalition%20Against%20Workplace%20Discrimination
