Sister-to-Sister Mentorship Program Nominations Open
Do you work with an incredible young woman activist who could benefit from intensive communications and advocacy training? If so, we want to hear from you! We are excited to announce that the Nobel Women’s Initiative, in partnership with Coady International Institute, is now accepting nominations for the 2020 Sister-to-Sister Mentorship Program.
Message from the Director of Education Programs
Given the nature of this unprecedented crisis, with the closure of international borders, termination of international flights, and general economic downturn, we have had to make some immediate and difficult decisions about the Institute’s 2020 course offerings.
Message from our Executive Director
As communities around the world face the Covid-19 (novel coronavirus) pandemic, I want you to know, on behalf of Coady Institute and St. Francis Xavier University Extension, that each and every one of you is in our thoughts during this time of great uncertainty. The ongoing spread of COVID-19 is affecting all of our communities, leading to changes in our daily lives that few of us could have imagined only a week or two ago.
