The Project aims to enhance the well-being of small-scale producers and businesses in Vietnam’s Mekong Delta rice supply chain by promoting the transition to low-carbon practices. By integrating gender equity, sustainability, and economic empowerment, the project aims to foster a more resilient and environmentally responsible rice sector in Vietnam. The Project will benefit approximately 20,500 rice producers, including 50% of women and 20% of ethnic minorities, by encouraging climate-smart practices in high-yield provinces such as Tra Vinh, An Giang, and Soc Trang. Project activities include: (1) Training rice producers, particularly women and ethnic minorities, in climate-smart agriculture (CSA) practices to improve productivity, reduce emissions, and strengthen climate resilience; (2) Providing technical assistance on voluntary low-carbon rice labeling; (3) Expanding capacity-building programs designed to equip rice producers, particularly women and ethnic minorities, with financial literacy, leadership,

The Project aims to deliver learner-centered, competency-based, and gender-responsive Technical and Vocational Education Training (TVET) services to support ethnic minority women (EMW) and other marginalized women (MW). It seeks to equip them with essential skills for the green transition, including sustainable agriculture, circular economy practices, and green industrial techniques. By enhancing their access to inclusive and market-driven TVET, the project will improve their resilience, adaptability, and economic opportunities, enabling them to secure decent jobs or start businesses while reducing the risks associated with unsafe domestic and international migration for low-skilled work. The Project also focuses on increasing EMW and MW’s involvement in TVET decision-making and strengthening service providers' capacity to break down systemic barriers, promote economic empowerment, and contribute to a more sustainable and inclusive workforce. The Project will benefit over 20,000 EMW and other MW in three tar

This 14-month project aims to support the coordination and implementation of the “Women’s 7” (W7), one of several official engagement groups facilitating inputs and discussions with civil society and experts, while contributing to improved gender equality outcomes resulting from Canada’s G7 Presidency in 2025. This will be achieved through the engagement of feminist activists and subject matter experts from Canada, G7 countries and the Global South in the gender-based analysis of Canada’s G7 themes and priorities; the gender analysis of previous G7 policy documents and commitments; the development of policy recommendations; and the engagement of G7 officials and gender equality leaders, including Canada, G7 Countries, and the Gender Equality Advisory Council (GEAC). Key activities include the publication of research papers providing a gender-based analysis of Canada’s G7 priorities, the formation of thematic working groups who will provide recommendations on Canada’s G7 priorities, the development of policy documents including a communique, analysis and recommendations, the communication and outreach of W7 policy documentation, and the engagement with the GEAC.

Specifically, the project will address systemic barriers within [Ontario’s Care Economy] by adapting Oxfam Canada’s care economy score card to the Ontario context, assessing Ontario’s care economy using the adapted scorecard, and mobilizing the results.

Through this 33-month systemic change project, Oxfam Canada, in partnership with the Pacific Immigrant Resources Society and Child Care Now, will scale up the Inclusive Child Care for All project to advance underrepresented women’s participation in leadership and decision-making roles in Early Learning and Child Care (ELCC) advocacy. The project will build the capacity of not-for-profit organizations serving underrepresented communities to advocate for a universal early learning and child care system. Oxfam Canada will engage existing advocacy networks and connect with new organizations across the Pacific, Prairies, Ontario, and Atlantic regions.

Oxfam Canada and its partners will also convene organizations that serve underrepresented women to facilitate their active participation in policy discussions and advocacy initiatives.
