Black Canadian Women in Action Society

Published purpose

Through this 33-month systemic change project, Black Canadian Women in Action Society will help advance representation in leadership and decision-making roles through systemic change. Specifically, the project will address systemic barriers within black and racialized women’s representation in leadership roles and equitable pay in the workforce by generating a community -based research framework which will encompass lived experiences of equity-deserving women from past and present labor trends and creating an educational development tool which will produce an interactive curriculum to educate various industry employers, human resources managers, policymakers, and stakeholders to advocate for change. An external evaluator will measure and assess the impact of the systemic change project. The results and project impacts will be disseminated to funders, partners, and community members
