Advancing Justice Together: Role of Immigrant women in Indigenous solidarity.
Expanded on the role played by immigrant settlers in furthering misleading information about Indigenous peoples due to mainly being exposed to mainstream media and detailed ways to facilitate them in building meaningful relationships with Indigenous communities.
This webinar aims to equip service providers with the tools and strategies needed to address feminism and intersectionality into the foundation of frontline programming for immigrant women. It will also explore how adopting these frameworks can better service delivery and meet the diverse needs of immigrant communities.
Services for immigrant and newcomer women in Canada have expanded, but too often rely on existing frameworks that assume universality. This overlooks the complex realities shaped by culture, migration, and intersecting identities. This gap is especially critical in GBV programming. While translation and multilingual services address linguistic barriers, they cannot bridge cultural or contextual divides. Without frameworks developed with and informed by communities, GBV programs risk being inaccessible, irrelevant, or alienating.
