Active Allyship provides practical, evidence-based solutions to establish an allyship practice intended to advance positive change in workplaces and transform your workplace culture to attract and sustain a diverse workforce—one that is representative of Canadian society.

The practical strategies offered in Active Allyship are brought to life through the stories of eight active allies, focused on 5 communities:

Dr. Jocelyn Peltier-Huntley, P.Eng. has more than 20 years of experience leading change. After starting her career in the Elk Valley coal industry, she worked in mining for 13 years and is now focused on leading and inspiring positive change through equity, diversity, and inclusion consulting. Her PhD project, “Activating Allies” focused on creating better workplaces for everyone by engaging everyone. Through her business, Prairie Catalyst Consulting, Jocelyn creates awareness and removes roadblocks so that individuals and organizations can realize the benefits of inclusion and achieve their full potential. Jocelyn’s first book, Active Allyship: Embracing a practice of inclusion to transform workplace culture, was published in 2025. Outside of her business, Jocelyn is the Board Chair of Women in Mining and Women in Nuclear Saskatchewan.
