Community organisations' practices regarding immigrant women

By Yasmina Chouakri

The aim of this report is to provide an overview of the role played by immigrant and racialised women within the community (or voluntary) sectors focused on immigration and women's issues. Although not exhaustive, the survey results suggest that women in this group are more likely than men to use the services of community organisations dedicated to immigration, whereas fewer than 20% of them use the women's organisations participating in the survey. The majority of these organisations remain unrepresentative and ill-equipped to meet the needs of this group, despite changes and a greater volume of research carried out, compared to the community sector dedicated to immigration. One observation stands out for both sectors: two isolated groups on opposite sides, with almost identical needs: - To be better equipped and trained regarding the realities and specific needs of these women;-To foster collaboration within the immigration sector and between the two sectors regarding the realities and needs of these women;-To advocate for these women's needs with the relevant institutions
