The women’s increased knowledge, leadership, decision-making and communication skills will work towards building healthier and stronger communities in which all members will derive benefits. It is the intent of the NAN Women’s Council to ensure that women in every community throughout NAN will have access to the major women’s development project; communities range from remote Northern fly-in/winter road locations to Eastern communities including the James Bay Coast. |
