Projet « Pleins feux sur les femmes entrepreneures handicapées » (SWED)

Le projet « Pleins feux sur les femmes entrepreneures en situation de handicap » (SWED) est une initiative de changement systémique visant à mieux comprendre le vécu des femmes en situation de handicap dans l’écosystème entrepreneurial. Ce projet comble le manque de données et d’informations dans le secteur de l’entrepreneuriat et soutient la sécurité économique et la prospérité de ces femmes.

A Working Group, ecosystem scan, and focus groups and interviews of women with disabilities will guide the development of an ecosystem strategy and a data collection tool for a collaborative pilot program.

Innovating for Inclusive and Equitable Post-Secondary Education: A Pathway to Realizing the SDGs

Funded by the Government of Canada's Sustainable Development Goals Program, this project focuses on the intersection of universal design in post-secondary education and decent work, as informed by the experiences of diverse students with disabilities. To date, we have completed an analysis of the Canadian Survey on Disability (CSD) to explore the indicators of success for graduates with disabilities who gain meaningful employment. We also completed a literature review on the transition between postsecondary education and decent work, and another one about understanding the benefits of inclusive design. We are currently working on developing a survey for students with disabilities and organizing social lab dialogues, where a variety of stakeholders will meet to discuss key elements essential to realizing inclusive design in post-secondary education and decent work.
