Information Commons
The Calgary Immigrant Women’s Association will assess the feasibility and market for launching an “Information Commons” as a social enterprise. This online learning centre will boost the capacity of interested organizations to work with newcomer women and support their gender-specific settlement and integration needs. It will also provide toolkits, program designs, best practices/approaches, assessments, and curriculums that have a cross-cultural, gender-specific lens. Resources focus on areas including health literacy, digital literacy, and cross-cultural parenting.
Grant amount: $50,000
