We invite women to become aware of their reality, to understand the social structures that influence their conditions and to organize themselves to take control over their lives. W e assist in the ownership of a process that equips them to take action and to mobilize other citizens to influence decisions that affect their families, their communities and society.

Citizen participation begins with the ability to understand current events, the rules of Canadian democracy and the rule of law. Our popular education workshops therefore enable women to learn about their rights, duties and responsibilities as citizens.
