Funding Announcement

We are happy to share that CRIAW-ICREF will receive close to $1 million to work together with the national women’s rights movement in Canada to identify and assess challenges and opportunities to our systemic change work!

The project is designed to build the feminist movement’s collective capacity using participatory and feminist intersectional methods. Central to the project is a focus on relationship-building and collaboration to help strengthen the movement into the future through enhanced sustainability and collective action. This project will end in March 2027.  

“We are grateful for the funding to examine the sustainability challenges and opportunities for the national women’s rights organizations working on systemic change. Collectively, our organizations work to address pressing and emerging intersectional women’s rights issues through research, advocacy, law reform, and lived experience. This project will provide us with the support to deliberate and find ways to reduce our precarity so we can continue all the important work ahead of addressing complex barriers to women’s rights and gender equality.”
