Description:
Through this 30-month project, the RFNB will create regional networking and collaboration mechanisms that accelerate systemic change and strengthen leadership by Francophone women and gender minorities to ensure they participate fully in democracy and in the post-Covid feminist recovery in New Brunswick. To achieve this, practices will be designed and deployed to enhance leadership and engagement by women and gender minorities, especially by creating action groups in each of the province’s six regions. The project will also aim to raise awareness among the public, service providers and decision makers about feminist issues by providing tools to the people directly affected by gender inequality. Finally, the RFNB will work with Acadian and Francophone civil society to disseminate the Action Plan on Gender Equality in New Brunswick. The project will unite organizations, associations and key actors in finding multi-sectoral solutions and decompartmentalizing the different sectors to expand the scope, impact and sustainability of efforts to support gender equality.
