Financial Literacy for Women
This project, funded by
Status
of Women Canada, had as main objective to provide tools and
information related to financial education of women in coastal
communities in the Southern Gulf of St. Lawrence. Rural women had
the chance to participate in different financial education
activities to enhance their capabilities of managing their
finances. This occurred in four workshops that took place in autumn
2009 in Moncton (NB), New Glasgow (NS), Charlottetown (PEI) and
Cap-aux-Meules (QC). This project has enabled the
Coalition-SGSL
to deepen relationships with groups focused on the welfare of
women in the region, and increase the participant’s
individual capacity to contribute to the sustainability of their
communities. We invite you to view the below documents to find out
