An Examination of the Needs of Overseas Filipina Workers in Canada : a stakeholder analysis leading to further questions

Keywords: stakeholder analysis, systems mapping, strategy, research

Given the research topic of "Women and Girls in Our Cities” I wanted to use this project as a way to understand the needs, networks, and resources of overseas Filipina workers in Canada. This project was completed as part of the Business and Design Thinking course in OCAD University’s Strategic Foresight and Design Masters of Design program.

A difficult limitation of this project was the inability to conduct primary research. This leads to obvious blindspots in any solution proposition, therefore I positioned this stakeholder analysis as a way to clarify further questions needed to better understand the needs and networks of Overseas Filipina workers in Canada.
