Summary
Through this 30-month project, the Fédération des femmes acadiennes de la Nouvelle-Écosse (FFANE) will amplify the promising practice of culturally adapting and validating translated tools and resources as well as their circulation through a lens of community engagement to strengthen the gender-based violence sector. It will help amplify French resources adapted to the realities of the Acadian and Francophone population of Nova Scotia (NS). It will focus on the need to address a language barrier which undermines French-speaking population of NS and adapt the content to regional realities. In order to do so, the project will include the creation of a committee of stakeholders from gender-based violence sector (GBV) and from Acadian and Francophone community sectors and implementation of a cultural adaptation and validation process for the identified resources. FFANE will conduct the mapping for awareness-raising and dissemination of these resources to inform others of this promising practice in order to allow them to reproduce and amplify it.

Description (French)
Grâce à ce projet de 30 mois, la Fédération des femmes acadiennes de la Nouvelle-Écosse (FFANE) amplifiera la pratique prometteuse d’adaptation et de validation culturelle des outils et ressources traduits, ainsi que leur circulation à travers d’une lentille d’engagement communautaire pour renforcer le secteur de la violence fondé sur le sexe. Elle permettra d’amplifier les ressources en français, adaptées aux réalités de la population acadienne et francophone de la Nouvelle-Écosse (N-É). Elle traitera le besoin d’adresser une barrière langagière qui vulnérabilise la population d’expression française de la N-É, et d’adapter les contenus aux réalités régionales. Pour ce faire, le projet comprendra la création d’un comité de parties prenantes du secteur de la violence fondée sur le sexe (VFS) et du communautaire acadien et francophone et la mise en place du processus d’adaptation et validation culturelle pour les ressources identifiées. La FFANE fera la cartographie pour la sensibilisation et dissémination de ces ressources pour informer les autres sur la pratique prometteuse afin de leur permettre de la reproduire ou le développer.
Expected Results
Promising practices are incorporated by the GBV sector into new or enhanced supports for target populations.

Programme de financement de la lutte contre la violence fondée sur le sexe
Program Purpose
The purpose of the GBV Program is to strengthen the GBV sector to address gaps in supports for two groups of survivors: 1) Indigenous women and their communities, and 2) underserved populations (including women living with a disability, non-status/refugee /immigrant women, LGBTQ2S, gender non-conforming people and ethno-cultural women) in Canada. The Program provides grant and contribution funding to Canadian organizations to improve supports to help create long-term, comprehensive solutions at the national, regional, and local levels.
Program Purpose (French)
Le Programme de financement de la lutte contre la violence fondée sur le sexe (le Programme) vise à renforcer la lutte contre la violence fondée sur le sexe (VFS) et, en particulier, à remédier au manque de soutien pour deux catégories de survivantes et survivants, soit : 1) les femmes autochtones et leurs communautés; et 2) les populations sous-desservies au Canada (notamment les femmes handicapées, les femmes réfugiées, immigrantes ou en situation irrégulière, les personnes allosexuelles et les femmes des minorités ethnoculturelles). Il s’agit d’un programme de subventions et contributions pour les organismes canadiens qui mènent des projets visant à améliorer les mesures d’aide offertes et à créer des solutions durables et complètes à l’échelle nationale, régionale et locale.
