A GROUNDBREAKING RESEARCH REPORT INVESTIGATING THE EXPERIENCES AND OUTCOMES OF DIVERSE GROUPS OF CANADIAN MUSLIM WOMEN.
Spearheaded by CCMW’s Research Consultant Dr. Sarah Shah, the project is the result of an unprecedented intersectional study of Canadian Muslim women.
The full report is available for free download here.
Voices that Matter applies an intersectional approach to explore the socioeconomic and demographic lived realities of Canadian Muslim women who are refugees, newcomers, Black, single mothers, queer, or women with diverse abilities.
The project is unique in its focus on women whose voices and realities are seldom heard or reflected in the work of other Muslim or mainstream organizations in Canada.
The results of this study will be published by CCMW in academic literature and will also be collected into a series of working reports to be presented by CCMW in policy forums. The results may also be shared by CCMW with relevant partners in academia, health care and social service institutions, community agencies, and government departments.
The research report was made possible through financial support from the Federal Department of Women and Gender Equality (WAGE).
