Through this 60-month project , Les Femmes Michif Otipemisiwak will increase its ability to prevent or address gender-based violence against Indigenous women, girls, or 2SLGBTQQIA+ people.

Through this 54-month project, the Nova Scotia Advisory Council on the Status of Women, in collaboration with the other three Atlantic provinces, will develop and pilot GuysWork, a transformative school-based program for male identified students across elementary, middle, and high school grades designed to help boys navigate the intense pressures and expectations around masculinity that shape their identities as men.

This program will support and strengthen efforts to engage young men as allies in reducing Gender Based Violence (GBV) and increase capacity for action. The work will help grow a population of young men who want to challenge and change social norms that contribute to GBV. By implementing this promising practice of teaching healthy masculinity in the Atlantic Region and ensuring a formal evaluation, the model will then be shared for possible replication by other jurisdictions.

With the Supplemental funds and extension provided in early 2026, the Nova Scotia Advisory Council on the Status of Women will further develop Guyswork by updating the curricula content reflecting the changes in the social landscape with regards to toxic/healthy masculinity. 2026-2027 will also see the full implementation of Guyswork to Grade 9s across the province and continue efforts in rolling out GuysWork across the Atlantic provinces, building on key lessons learned and experiences from the first four years of the project.

This 7-month project is a phase 2 of the project SO20206 and will strengthen the capacity of Pride Calgary Planning Committee to advance LGBTQ2 equality. This will be achieved by building managerial capacity through the development and refinement of board governance resources; increasing evidence and knowledge of LGBTQ2 challenges and barriers by conducting a comprehensive scan of community needs; and strategic planning.

An external consultant will perform a fulsome review of the organization’s operations to identify and create tools needed to enhance organizational governance, delegation, and external relationship management capacity. A diverse and inclusive community of key stakeholders will also be engaged to develop best practices models and inform the strategic planning of programming and services. Through this multifaceted approach, a 5-year strategic plan will be developed, strengthening Pride Calgary Planning Committee’s capacity to grow and sustainably support the LGBTQ2 community.

At the end of the project, the organization will have increased knowledge and capacity to advance equality with respect to sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression.
