International Center for Family Welfare (ICFW)

Published purpose

Through this 32-month systemic change project, International Centre for Family Welfare (ICFW) will help advance women’s economic security and prosperity through systemic change. Specifically, the project will address systemic barriers preventing racialized women from fully participating in political activities. The project will 1) mobilize a network of women and partners; 2) develop and promote a non-partisan (across party lines) policy that supports participation of racialized women in politics; and 3) reinforce the capacity and systemically support racialized women who are interested in participating in politics by addressing gaps that prevent their effective participation. An external evaluator will measure and assess the impact of the systemic change project.
