Analysis to Action on Gender Based Violence
FY 2019-20 · 2019-04-30
Summary
This 59-month project will address organizational capacity needs to allow Northwestern Ontario Women's Centre to continue promoting social and systemic change towards gender equality. Organizational capacity will be enhanced through partnerships with local women's advocates in the development of a collaborative advocacy strategy on gender-based violence that is informed by anti-racism, anti-oppression, trauma-informed and gender-based analysis frameworks. This advocacy strategy includes connecting with existing broader campaigns and efforts, the creation of an online platform and communication network, the analysis and publication of legal system outcomes through this network, and the establishment of an annual ""Think Tank"" for local women's advocates.
The 2023 supplementary funds will be used to develop a standardized program evaluation protocol, build and retain diverse board and staff through a recruitment protocol, develop an organizational plan focussing on pension and benefit development, design a standardized annual budget development process to complement and operationalize the new strategic plan and increase capacity for standardized GBA Court Observation through data management.

Description (French)
Ce projet de 59 mois répondra aux besoins en matière de capacité organisationnelle pour permettre au Northwestern Ontario Women's Centre de continuer à promouvoir un changement social et systémique vers l'égalité des sexes. La capacité organisationnelle sera renforcée grâce à des partenariats avec des défenseurs locaux des femmes dans le développement d'une stratégie de plaidoyer concertée sur la violence basée sur le genre qui s'appuie sur des cadres d'analyse anti-racisme, anti-oppression, basés sur les traumatismes et basés sur le genre. Cette stratégie de plaidoyer comprend la connexion avec des campagnes et des efforts plus larges existants, la création d'une plate-forme en ligne et d'un réseau de communication, l'analyse et la publication des résultats du système juridique par le biais de ce réseau, et la création d'un "Think Tank" annuel pour les défenseurs locaux des femmes.
Les fonds supplémentaires de 2023 serviront à élaborer un protocole normalisé d’évaluation des programmes, à constituer et à maintenir un conseil d’administration et un personnel diversifiés au moyen d’un protocole de recrutement, à élaborer un plan organisationnel axé sur le développement des pensions et des avantages sociaux, à concevoir un processus normalisé d’élaboration d’un budget annuel pour compléter et rendre opérationnel le nouveau plan stratégique, et à accroître la capacité d’observation normalisée du tribunal des cas de violence fondée sur le sexe grâce à la gestion des données.
