Description

This strategy outlined priorities and actions for preventing and responding to violence against Indigenous women and girls for the period 2017-2021. The plan was guided by five principles: 1) be Indigenous woman centered; 2) be respectful of the values, cultures, and traditions of Indigenous people in New Brunswick; 3) partner with Indigenous people and incorporate and use the knowledge of Indigenous women and elders; 4) complement current and future work done by Indigenous communities and organizations, and federal and provincial governments; and 5) partner with community-based organizations working in areas of violence prevention, intervention, and training to implement actions outlined in the plan.
