Ce projet d’une durée de 24 mois porte sur les capacités dont l’organisme a besoin pour continuer à promouvoir les changements sociaux et systémiques qui favorisent l’égalité entre les sexes. Les capacités organisationnelles seront renforcées parmi élaboration et la mise en œuvre d’un plan stratégique qui permettra de créer un répertoire des services de soutien et formation à l’intention des organismes locaux pour améliorer leur capacité à venir en aide aux femmes autochtones.
