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.
