On the Move Survey

CAAWS is currently undertaking an environmental scan to assist us in determining the future direction and priorities for our On the Move initiative, now in its 15th year. As you may be aware, On the Move is a national initiative to increase opportunities for inactive girls and young women (ages 9-18) to participate in sport and physical activity. Through education, collaboration and communication, On the Move influences change in the sport and physical activity, health, education and social service sectors to increase gender equity.

This survey is designed to determine the progress made with respect to gender equity for girls and young women in recent years, the ongoing need for a national initiative like On the Move, and ways in which On the Move could be enhanced to continue to support positive change. It is designed to be completed by a wide range of stakeholders with an interest in the health and well-being of girls and young women. The survey findings will be compiled in a report CAAWS will use to inform participants at an On the Move planning session taking place in Ottawa in December.

The survey will take approximately 15 minutes to complete. Survey responses will be kept confidential. You will have the option to begin the survey and resume it at a later time. However, you must complete the survey from the same computer with which you started the survey.

All respondents will be entered into a draw to receive one of five CAAWS prize packs (includes a CAAWS tote bag, umbrella, travel mug, pen, and USB drive). Contact information collected for the prize draw will not be linked to your survey responses.

Thank you in advance for your assistance. If you have any questions or want to provide additional information please contact Sydney Millar, CAAWS’s National Program Manager, at 613.562.5667 or snmillar@caaws.ca.
