“What Women are Saying
about our Workshops”

— comments from participants in UNPAC workshops —

I thought it would just be us sitting here and being lectured about how the government spends our money and how we couldn’t do anything about it. I didn’t think it would be this interactive and interesting.”

The workshop helped me understand the changes we women can make in the budget.”

The most interesting part is that I learned from other participants that I am not alone.”

Every woman should know about the provincial budget. I had no clue. Now I know more and am confident to mention it to others.”

I never thought that this would be really really interesting, never thought until now. I would like to be more involved in this kind of activity.”

Sharing, wisdom, knowledge and experience. Our personal lives are so affected by the budget. How can you not get involved? You’ve got to!”

The facilitators were very personable, down to earth, and knowledgeable. They helped to establish a positive atmosphere and good comfort level.”

The activity length was good. We didn’t spend too much time on anything, which allowed people to stay focused. The workshop used movement and visual, oral and tactile learning styles.”

The facilitators were excellent. They were easy to understand and explained things I didn’t understand.”

I was very impressed.  The level of organization and details to aid facilitators is awesome. So well organized and put together. It is great that you will make this available to folks on your web-site.” — Suzanne Doerge, Project Coordinator, City for All Women Initiative, Ottawa
