Through this 16-month project, Yukon Women’s Coalition (YWC) will increase its ability to prevent and address gender-based violence against Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQIA+ people with a focus on advancing equity and safety for women and gender diverse people across Yukon.

This will be achieved through the implementation of a 2023-2025 strategic plan focused on review of internal governance structure and processes; needs assessment through environmental scanning; the establishment of a communications plan and online presence including engagement with First Nations and broader communities; and bolstering YWC’s leadership in the anti-violence sector through involvement in Together for Safety group, which works to improve regional responses to gender-based violence in partnership with the Whitehorse RCMP and other service organizations.

By the end of the project, YWC will have strengthened their capacity, resulting in stronger partnerships across organizations across Yukon to increase leadership capacity across all diversely connected sectors in their membership and prevent and address GBV against Indigenous women, girls, and 2SLGBTQIA+ communities.

Through this 23-month project, Dignity Network Canada (DNC) will strengthen its foundation, cultivating a more resilient, sustainable, and interconnected network dedicated to advancing 2SLGBTQI+ equality and human rights. The project aims to enhance the capacity and resilience
of DNC, enabling active participation in the global movement for human rights, freedom, and inclusion.

To achieve this, the project will ensure that the network possesses the essential resources, infrastructure, funding, and partnerships. This involves crafting a comprehensive multi-year strategic plan, refining fundraising development strategies, nurturing donor relationships, and establishing an updated, secure, and interactive bilingual website.

Key activities include engaging both community and government stakeholders, developing and endorsing strategic planning documents, and creating resources and tools to reinforce financial resilience and communication efforts. This project serves not only as a strategic roadmap for
organizational growth but also as a commitment to fortifying their position as a leading advocate for 2SLGBTQI+ rights.

Through this 40-month project, AGIR will strengthen the capacity of organizations and 2SLGBTQI+ community networks to advance 2SLGBTQI+ equality. The project will address the need to keep pace with the organization’s significant growth in order to meet increasing needs. The project will focus on ensuring long-term financial viability, building solid foundations for their internal structures, and consolidating the leadership of LGBTQ+ migrants and refugees within the organization.

Thanks to the additional funding and extension granted in early 2026, AGIR: LGBTQ+ Migrant and Refugee Support will implement a new phase of organizational capacity building focused on the institutionalization of governance systems, the development of a diversified revenue infrastructure, and the establishment of leadership continuity mechanisms within the organization. Through this they will further advance gender equality.
