Equal Voice Alberta is urging more women to run in the 2019 Alberta provincial election.
The group launched their She Leads Campaign 101 Workshops on Saturday with a panel discussion that drew more than 40 attendees.
Organizer Jenessa Crognali says the first session was about learning to navigate the nomination process — one of the first steps toward getting elected.
"We decided to make our first Campaign 101 Workshop focused on demystifying that process so that women who aren't already involved with a party or who might not have those connections are able to get the information they need," she said.
