Women of the Métis Nation Augmented Capacity
FY 2017-18 · 2018-02-25
Summary
This 24-month project will support the development of a strong, effective and sustainable Métis women’s organization that advocates for the interests and needs of Métis women, by delivering on substantive grassroots-informed outcomes and policy positions. The organization will conduct a needs assessment to gather evidence about the challenges faced by Métis women and girls. A report will be developed to inform best practices and lessons learned on how to engage Métis women, which will contribute to the direction of future work. As a result, Métis women organizations across Canada will be better equipped to influence the application of a gendered lens on the governance structures, programs and policies within the Métis National Council.

Program Purpose (French)
Ce projet de 24 mois appuiera la création d’un organisme solide, efficace et durable pour défendre les intérêts et besoins des Métisses, ce qui se traduira par des positions de principe et des résultats concrets, ancrés dans la communauté. L’organisme évaluera les besoins pour recueillir des données probantes sur les défis auxquels sont confrontées les Métisses, enfants ou adultes. Un rapport sera élaboré pour cerner les pratiques exemplaires et les leçons apprises quant aux moyens de mobiliser les Métisses, ce qui aidera à orienter les travaux futurs. Subséquemment, les organismes de Métisses partout au Canada seront mieux outillés pour amener l’intégration des considérations d’égalité entre les sexes aux structures, aux programmes et aux politiques de gouvernance du Ralliement national des Métis.
