On the Move workshops are interactive, issue-based
sessions that provide an overview of the initiative,
share best practices from across Canada, and provide
“how-to” tips to increase the participation
of girls and young women. Appropriate for everyone from
practitioners to policy makers, the workshops also provide
an opportunity for participants to network and discuss
collaboration and local action to make a difference
in the lives of girls and young women in our communities.
Complimentary On the Move Handbooks are given to each
participant, and information about CAAWS resources and
initiatives, such as Team Spirit: Aboriginal Girls in
Sport, is provided as relevant.
