Description:
This 36-month project will address existing barriers to Indigenous women’s economic security and prosperity in northern British Columbia by incorporating a gendered lens in the economic development plans of First Nations Band Councils. This will be achieved by establishing partnerships, conducting a needs assessment utilizing gender-based analysis, researching models of best practices, developing a First Nations economic development manual and workshop series and implementing identified test strategies. This will build the capacity of First Nations communities and their governance structures to identify and incorporate the needs of women into community economic development plans.
