Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

This 11-months project will address organizational capacity needs to allow the organization to continue promoting social and systemic change towards gender equality. Organization capacity will be enhanced through the following activities: enabling OCTEVAW, member organizations working in the sector and service providers to identify tangible ways to support and amplify Indigenous voices, the MMIWG2S Calls to Justice, and prevent gender-based violence against Indigenous women, girls and two-spirit people.

Through this 53-month project, 2Spirit Manitoba Inc. will increase its capacity to prevent and address gender-based violence (GBV) against Indigenous women, girls, or 2SLGBTQIA+ community members. This will be achieved by developing more inclusive policies and procedures, collaborating with Rainbow Resource Centre to ready the organization for youth focused GBV programs, by creating a strategic plan through community consultation and advisory group engagement, by creating GBV focused tools and resources, including a “safer spaces” guide for gender diverse and trans Indigenous community members, by creating a tool for 2SIQ inclusion at Trans Day of Remembrance events and by developing educational workshop content.

By the end of this project, 2Spirit Manitoba Inc. will have strengthened their internal capacity to prevent and address GBV against Indigenous women, girls, or 2SLGBTQIA+ people with a focus on creating resources for 2SIQ community members and allies within Manitoba.

With the Supplemental funds and extension provided in early 2026, 2Spirit Manitoba Inc. will improve how the organization learns and operates more effectively, collaborates with partners and strengthens networks to end violence against Indigenous women, girls and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people and improves organizational and resource sustainability through succession planning and performance evaluation.

Through this 53-month project, Ilitaqsiniq will increase its ability to prevent and address gender-based violence against Indigenous women, girls, or 2SLGBTQI+ people in Nunavut. This will be achieved by improving the way they plan to ensure gender equity is built into their foundation, increasing their effectiveness at recruiting, and retaining staff, increasing staff knowledge including 2SLGBTQI+ and trauma Informed awareness, building a 2SLGBTQI+ innovative work pan-northern partnership network.

By the end of the project, Ilitaqsiniq will have strengthened its capacity to prevent and fight gender-based violence against Indigenous 2SLGBTQI+ women, girls and people.

With the supplemental funds and extension provided in early 2026, Ilitaqsiniq will develop a Piliriaksat Database Workforce Management Module, digitize and operationalize its new strategic plan, establish annual planning retreats for its 3 leadership cohorts , build a digital Performance Measurement and Management Framework, pilot the Women’s Leadership and Empowerment Workshop internally, and develop an Inu-vative Board Governance model for its all-women, all-Inuit Board of Directors.
