“We are doing exciting work with private sector partners to help women overcome systemic and institutional barriers. Forging effective partnerships helps us realize a shared strategic vision to ensure that women play vital and indispensable leadership roles in food processing today and in the future. Positive instrumental change does not happen easily, which is why we are grateful for the support from the Government of Canada.”
– Candice Appleby, Executive Director

The SSFPA recognizes Women and Gender Equality Canada as a key funder for this initiative. To carry out this project, other funders have assisted various components of the work.  We are grateful for their support, their input, and their willingness to consider how this project can influence their own work of investing in the Canadian Food System.
