By the end of the project, the organization will have strengthened their capacity to prevent and address GBV against Indigenous women and girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA+ people.
With the supplemental funds and extension provided in early 2026, the AnânauKatiget Tumingit Regional Inuit Women’s Association will finalize their governance foundation by modernizing bylaws, defining roles, and integrating Inuit values. They will also enhance advocacy and leadership impact through community-based mentorship and guidance, and culturally grounded policy initiatives.
