This will involve the delivery of workplace skills training responsive to individual identity and needs to 3 cohorts of Indigenous womxn; supporting and facilitating job interviews and placements for participants with employers identified as demonstrating a willingness to accommodate and adapt to the needs of all employees and to examine their internal systems for change; and providing Indigenous cultural support services to both employed participants and the employer post-hiring, to ensure retention of Indigenous womxn who will collaboratively influence and effect meaningful institutional change alongside the employer. At the end of the project, the organization will have contributed to addressing systemic barriers by advancing inclusive policies and practices, increasing networks and collaboration to accelerate systemic change, and addressing persistent harmful gender norms and attitudes to support women’s equality.

Description (French)
Ce projet de 26 mois vise à susciter un changement systémique dans le cadre d’une réponse et une relance féministes pour conter les effets de la pandémie de COVID-19. Anish Corporation y parviendra en mettant en œuvre un projet visant à améliorer le statut socioéconomique des femmes autochtones. Il s’agira d’offrir une formation professionnelle adaptée à l’identité et aux besoins individuels de trois cohortes de femmes autochtones; de soutenir et de faciliter les entretiens d’embauche et le placement des participantes auprès d’employeurs désirant s’adapter aux besoins de l’ensemble de leur personnel et examiner leurs systèmes internes en vue de les changer. Après l’embauche, les participantes employées et l’employeur se verront offrir des services de soutien culturel autochtone afin de garantir le maintien en poste des femmes autochtones qui, ensemble, exerceront une influence et, aux côtés de l’employeur, susciteront des changements importants au sein de leurs organisations respectives. À la fin du projet, l’organisation aura contribué à éliminer les obstacles systémiques en faisant progresser les politiques et les pratiques inclusives, en augmentant les réseaux et la collaboration pour accélérer le changement systémique, et en s’attaquant aux normes et attitudes sexistes persistantes et néfastes pour soutenir l’égalité des femmes.
