EF 2018-19 · 2018-10-01
Résumé
This 36-month project will address barriers to economic security faced by Métis mothers and caregivers as they attempt to enter, re-enter or remain in the workforce. Through the development and pilot implementation of individual “pathways to prosperity plans,” Métis women in Manitoba will benefit from increased accessibility and coordination of relevant programs and services, such as childcare. In addition, a network of stakeholders, employers and Métis women in business will participate through targeted outreach for job-matching, and learning and skills-building sessions with participating women. Insights generated through the project will inform the creation of Métis-specific childcare programming, and will be shared to shape employer human resource and institutional policies where possible.

Description (French)
Ce projet de 36 mois portera sur les obstacles à la sécurité économique auxquels se butent les mères et les aidantes métisses qui tentent d’accéder au marché du travail, d’y retourner ou encore d’y rester. Par l’élaboration et la mise à l’essai de « parcours personnels vers la prospérité », les Métisses du Manitoba profiteront d’un meilleur accès à un ensemble de programmes et de services pertinents, comme les services de garde. De plus, on fera appel à un réseau de parties prenantes, d’employeuses et d’employeurs et de femmes d’affaires métisses pour tenir des activités de jumelage ciblées et des séances de formation et de perfectionnement pour les participantes. Les apprentissages tirés du projet serviront à créer des programmes adaptés à la population métisse et, lorsque possible, à façonner les politiques et services de ressources humaines des employeuses et employeurs.
