CCBR typically has 15-20 ongoing projects and has completed over 450 projects since 1982. Each project is guided by our commitment to impacting social change in practical and powerful ways. We conduct research with people not on people, cultivating respect with communities at every step of the process.

The purpose of the Bridging the Gap project was to reduce the systemic gender-based barriers (economic (e.g., loans), social, and institutional (e.g., access to community resources)) that women face in business and to ensure equal opportunities for economic prosperity. This happened over four phases: (1) Building Partnerships; (2) Engaging Women Entrepreneurs; (3) Making Gender Equality Our Priority and Developing Best Practices; (4) Bringing All Parties Together to Share Outcomes and Plan for Sustainability. This project was funded by Women’s Multicultural Resource and Counseling Centre of Durham (WMRCC).
