Dans ce rôle, Wilfreda fera partie de la grande famille d’Imagine Canada et exécutera plusieurs fonctions clés, notamment le développement de stratégies, la liaison avec l’ensemble du secteur et la création de partenariats.

    35 % des OBNL mentionnent que le plus grand obstacle auquel ils font face en interne aujourd’hui est le manque de personnel doté des compétences nécessaires pour gérer la transformation numérique de l’organisation. Le 30 mai 2024, nous avons réuni des expert.e.s pour discuter des aspects liés à l’éthique que les organismes de bienfaisance et les OBNL doivent prendre en compte lorsqu’ils intègrent des technologies d’intelligence artificielle (IA) au sein de leur organisation. Lisez notre dernier article de blog pour plus de points clés de la discussion en panel :
