A Women’s Economic Recovery Challenge Grant has been awarded to 20 non-profit community groups in Alberta. The grant will improve economic prospects for women and girls through STEM training and mentorship, digital literacy, career planning, employment and entrepreneurial skills, and inclusion campaigns.
“Alberta’s economy is moving from recovery to sustained growth. There is opportunity in every industry as labour shortages are the only thing holding back further growth. The programs these grants support will ensure that women and girls are not left out of those opportunities.” – Doug Schweitzer, Minister of Jobs, Economy, and Innovation.
The program will provide women with training, skills development, and the information they need for the future, enabling them to support their families, the economy, and their communities.
“Women’s inclusion in the economy is essential to building Alberta’s future. These projects will create new opportunities for women to advance their careers and promote gender equality. I look forward to seeing how these initiatives change the lives of Alberta women, their communities, and this province for the better.” –Whitney Issik, Associate Minister of Status of Women.
