Sharing ideas: 2SLGBTQI+ community needs
Consultation is open until August 31, 5:00 p.m. Eastern time
Launched in August 2022 with a $100-million investment over five years, the 2SLGBTQI+ Action Plan was Canada’s first whole-of-government strategy to advance equality for 2SLGBTQI+ communities. The Federal 2SLGBTQI+ Action Plan, led by WAGE, focused on six priority areas. The following sections outline the progress made on each of these priorities:
- Prioritize and sustain 2SLGBTQI+ community action
- Continue to advance and strengthen 2SLGBTQI+ rights at home and abroad
- Support Indigenous 2SLGBTQI+ resilience and resurgence
- Engage everyone in Canada in fostering a 2SLGBTQI+ inclusive future
- Strengthen 2SLGBTQI+ data and evidence-based policy making
- Embed 2SLGBTQI+ issues in the work of the Government of Canada
We want to hear from you
