Description (French)
Ce projet de 56 mois répondra aux besoins en capacité organisationnelle afin de permettre à Windsor Women Working with Immigrant Women de continuer à promouvoir un changement social et systémique en faveur de l’égalité des genres. On améliorera les capacités organisationnelles grâce aux démarches suivantes : l’élaboration de politiques et de procédures de gouvernance et de gestion des risques; une planification stratégique; la création d’une stratégie de collecte de fonds qui comporte un plan de durabilité financière; la création d’une stratégie de mobilisation des parties prenantes axée sur les communications et le partenariat. On améliorera également les pratiques et le leadership liés aux ressources humaines en élaborant une entente collective ainsi qu’un plan pour le développement du langage et de l’interprétation. Le financement supplémentaire de 2020 sera utilisé pour l'élaboration d'une stratégie de cybersécurité et d'un plan de viabilité, la mise à jour du site web de l'organisation et du manuel de politique de gouvernance, ainsi que la révision de l'équité salariale. Le financement supplémentaire de 2023 servira à renforcer la capacité organisationnelle à susciter le changement en élaborant des stratégies de défense des femmes et des personnes racialisées qui intègrent le cadre de l'ACS+, ainsi qu'en élaborant une politique organisationnelle qui permette de mieux répondre aux initiatives collectives.
