Immigrant Migrant Women's Association of Halifax

Published purpose

This 60-month project will address organizational capacity needs to allow the organization to continue empowering immigrant, migrant women and girls and advancing gender equality. Organizational capacity will be enhanced through the following activities; expanding board governance; strategic planning; develop GBA+ approach to advocacy; diversification of funding sources; and partnership building. Supplementary funding will be used to further build internal capacity, to hire a part-time employee in order to address growing demand for services and to develop sector capacity while continuing to build partnerships. The extension in time and additional funds will allow the organization to strengthen its sector coalitions presence and develop immigrant and migrant women' formal and informal cultural networks and partnerships in Nova Scotia.
