Fédération des Communautés Culturelles de l'Estrie

Published purpose

Through this 24-month project, the Fédération des communautés culturelles de l’Estrie will help advance women’s economic security and prosperity through systemic change. In particular, the project will address systemic barriers within Estrie organizations operating in the economic sphere, whether in education, career counselling, entrepreneurship, advocacy, or budget counselling. This will be achieved through creating partnerships, establishing an advisory committee, conducting a needs analysis among immigrant women, analyzing partner organizations’ client reception and services, and implementing strategies for adapting services in the area and sharing lessons learned. A Gender-Based Analysis Plus consultant will take part in various stages of the project, and an external evaluation will measure and assess the impact of this systemic change project.
