Description (French)
Ce projet d’une durée de 29 mois soutiendra une réponse et une relance féministes, à la suite des répercussions actuelles de la COVID-19, grâce à un changement systémique. Up with Women y parviendra en enrôlant des sociétés, en offrant une formation et un soutien aux conseillères ou conseillers experts, et en élargissant leur plateforme technique pour améliorer l’accès aux services consultatifs pour les femmes à risque d’itinérance ou de précarité en matière de logement. À la fin du projet, l’organisme aura contribué à éliminer les obstacles systémiques entourant la stigmatisation liée à l’itinérance, la précarité en matière de logement et les coûts élevés liés au recours à des conseils professionnels en renforçant les réseaux et la collaboration pour accélérer le changement systémique, et en s’attaquant aux normes et attitudes de genre préjudiciables persistantes, pour promouvoir l’égalité des femmes.
Expected Results
Women and stakeholders have access to supports to address issues relating to equality between women and men.
Expected Results (French)
