March is a month to honour progress, celebrate achievements, and take action for a more equitable and inclusive world.
International Women’s Day invites us to “Accelerate Action” and to do that, Connect is releasing several reports that synthesize actions to prevent gender based violence. The International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination calls on us to combat prejudice and foster justice. While nutrition month highlights the importance of informed
food choices and sustainable nutrition for healthier communities.
Let’s unite this March to inspire change, share knowledge, and create a better future for all. Check our list of dates and resources here.

A Synthesis of Action Plans for Ending Gender-Based Violence and Promoting Equity in Nova Scotia
|
|
|
|
|
Gender-based violence remains a critical issue in Nova Scotia, demanding urgent and collective action. Connect Women’s Centres, with the support of the Status of Women Office, has commissioned Be the Peace Institute to synthesize key reports that have shaped policies and strategies to combat GBV.
This comprehensive research serves as both a guide and a call to action, equipping front-line workers and community organizations with insights and recommendations to drive real change. By distilling the findings of five landmark reports, these documents provide a clear path forward for advocacy, systemic reform, and community-level response.
Join us in building a safer, more equitable future. Read the full report here.
