Status of Women Canada

Program Purpose:

This 36-month project will work with three main organizations (Quebec City's entrepreneur division, Fonds d’emprunt Québec and Entreprenariat Laval) to integrate GBA+ in their programs and policies in order to identify and close the gaps between women and men entrepreneurs. The CDEC will undergo the same exercise within its own organization. All 4 organizations will then implement context-specific strategies to ensure that the project and related new practices are sustainable. Certain partners will also contribute directly to outcomes by investing resources in the project. Outcomes will be widely shared at the end of the project through a partner committee.
