"We are Canada’s public foundation for gender justice and equality. We advance this by growing support for grassroots feminist action, partnering with communities and organizations to improve conditions, and building diverse leadership and knowledge for sustainable change. We are a leader in feminist philanthropy. We mobilize, steward, and grant funds. We engage partners and donors and encourage them on their journey to feminist philanthropy. We generate and share knowledge on the root causes of and solutions to gender injustice. We champion a spirit of shared responsibility for progressive change, restorative action, truth and reconciliation, and an end to systemic discrimination. We fund, support, amplify, and participate in intersectional feminist movements. We engage a national network of community-based experts in pressing issues that affect women, girls, and gender-diverse people, with a focus on those who face multiple barriers, including First Nations, Inuit, and Métis communities, Black and racialized communities, youth, people living with disabilities, 2SLGBTQIA+ people, newcomers, migrants, and sex workers." https://canadianwomen.org/about-us/

"A Chamber of Commerce is an organization with a goal to further the interests of the businesses they serve and to advocate at all levels of government for the interests of their members. CanWCC is the first – and only – Chamber of Commerce for women-identified and non-binary business owners in Canada. (Before 2017, we didn’t exist, so there’s a lot of catching up to do). As a chamber of commerce, we represent your needs with the government. Our position and title as a chamber gives us access to people who impact change. We’re working hard to make the change you deserve now- not in 100 years." https://canwcc.ca/about/

"TransitieCinema is organized by a group of volunteers. As group we are interested in documentaries and starting conversations about sustainability, transition and related social issues. TransitieCinema addresses a multitude of topics related to sustainability and transition, and we wouldn’t be able to do that without our community and partners. The goal of TransitieCinema is to inform and make the public aware of the issues and discussion concerning the topics of sustainability and transition. To achieve this, we screen documentaries; and after the movie we translate the topic and its issues to a local context with experts on the topic. The events are organized by the organizing team. This is facilitated by Stichting TransitiCinema, governed by its board and funded by donations." https://www.transitiecinema.nl/foundation-transitiecinema/
