2SLGBTQI Projects Fund 2024 Call for Proposals- APPLY TODAY!!!
Deadline: April 10, 2024, at 12:00 p.m. (noon) Pacific time
Women and Gender Equality Canada (WAGE) works to advance equality with respect to sex, sexual orientation and gender identity or expression through the inclusion of people of all genders, including women, in Canada’s economic, social and political life.
Context for the call for proposals
Although much progress has been made in Canada towards protecting rights and improving equality for 2SLGBTQI communities, stigma and discrimination persist, and drive long-standing and ongoing inequities for 2SLGBTQI people in Canada.
Under Canada's first federal 2SLGBTQI Action Plan, funding has been made available to support work by 2SLGBTQI organizations to address barriers to 2SLGBTQI equality.
Objective of the call for proposals
The objective of this call for proposals is to advance the equality of 2SLGBTQI people. Community-informed projects will address needs and barriers to equality.
Here are some examples of projects that align with this call for proposals:
Improve Indigenous 2SLGBTQI people's access to resources and supports adapted to their needs. Identify and address barriers to resources and supports.
Amplify trans voices in 2SLGBTQI communities. Address barriers to their access to leadership positions in the community.
Pink shirt day is an opportunity to raise awareness about the fight to curb bullying. Today, we launch our 2SLGBTQI Projects Fund Call for Proposal to empower communities through funding to on-the-ground orgs that help foster greater inclusion for everyone. APPLY NOW! https://ow.ly/O7Jf50QISsC
