Résumé
This 25-month project will foster a feminist response and recovery in the context of the current impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic through systemic change. To achieve this, the Alliance des femmes de la francophonie canadienne (AFFC) will mobilize its members to put in place a national strategy and an action plan that will support the recognition of women’s and girls’ right to be respected. The AFFC and its partners will launch a national social media awareness campaign to counter gender-based violence in Francophone and Acadian communities. A large part of this campaign will be driven by ambassadors who will testify to the realities and increased needs of Canadian women living in official language minority communities. The AFFC will develop tools and resources for its network partners who help vulnerable women, particularly women living in remote areas, and will share with them good practices and initiatives that can be adapted to their contexts. Women and girls who are survivors of violence will share their experiences through consultations, thus helping to make a positive difference for themselves and their peers. A survey will then be conducted to evaluate the activities implemented, and the results will be shared online with the partners.
At the end of the project, the organization will have contributed to the removal of systemic barriers by promoting a more efficient and equitable sharing of resources, by increasing networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change, and by changing persistent prejudicial gender norms and attitudes to support equality for women.

Description (French)
Ce projet de 25 mois favorisera une réponse et une relance féministes à la suite des répercussions actuelles de la COVID-19, grâce à des changements systémiques. Pour y parvenir, l’Alliance des femmes de la francophonie canadienne (AFFC) mobilisera ses membres pour mettre en place une stratégie nationale et un plan d’action qui appuieront la reconnaissance du droit au respect des femmes et des filles. L’AFFC et ses partenaires lanceront une campagne nationale de sensibilisation dans les médias sociaux afin de contrer la violence fondée sur le sexe envers les communautés francophones et acadiennes. Cette campagne sera portée en grande partie par des ambassadrices qui témoigneront des réalités et des besoins accrus des femmes canadiennes vivant dans une communauté de langue officielle en situation minoritaire. L’AFFC développera des outils et des ressources pour les partenaires de son réseau qui viennent en aide aux femmes vulnérables, particulièrement celles qui vivent dans les régions éloignées, et leur partagera des bonnes pratiques et initiatives adaptables à leurs contextes. Des femmes et des filles survivantes de violence partageront leurs expériences dans le cadre de consultations, contribuant ainsi à faire une différence positive pour elles et pour leurs paires. Un sondage sera ensuite mené pour évaluer les activités mises en place et les résultats seront partagés sur le web avec les partenaires.
À la fin du projet, l’organisme aura contribué à l’élimination d’obstacles systémiques, en favorisant un partage plus efficace et équitable des ressources, en accroissant les réseaux et la collaboration pour accélérer le changement systémique et en changeant les normes et attitudes de genre préjudiciables persistantes à l’appui de l’égalité des femmes.
