BECOME AN ON THE MOVE WORKSHOP FACILITATOR

Application Deadline: Monday, November 30, 2009 – 5:00pm EST

The Canadian Association for the Advancement of Women and Sport and Physical Activity (CAAWS) is looking for twelve keen women from across Canada who would like to become On the Move workshop facilitators.

On the Move is a national initiative designed 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 active living, health, education, and social service sectors to increase gender equity.

On the Move Workshops are half-day, 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 their community.
