Ce projet de 36 mois s’attaquera aux obstacles systémiques auxquels se butent les pompières en Ontario et aux inégalités entre les sexes qui sont attribuables à la culture et à la structure des milieux de travail, aux stratégies de recrutement ou aux politiques institutionnelles. Fire Service Women Ontario a obtenu le soutien de la haute direction des services d’incendie et fera l’essai d’une stratégie dans deux emplacements en Ontario pour cerner les obstacles et créer un changement systémique.
