United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals

The Department for Women and Gender Equality works to advance gender equality through an intersectional gendered lens. Working in partnership with key stakeholders, including civil society organizations, labour groups, the private sector, other orders of government, and First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples, the Department actively promotes the inclusion of all people in Canada's economic, social, and political life. The Department for Women and Gender Equality works to uphold its mandate to advance equality with respect to sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression by performing a central coordination function within the Government of Canada, developing and implementing policies, providing grants and contributions, delivering programs, investing in research, and providing advice to achieve equality for people of all genders. In addition, WAGE provides leadership and support to help ensure that all government actions tackle inequalities and barriers to equitably benefiting from opportunities and government initiatives.

Canada's approach to mainstreaming equality, fairness and inclusion is Gender-based Analysis Plus (GBA Plus). Canada's commitment to GBA Plus is long-standing and its practice has been continuously improved over 30 years. It is a key tool for Canada to operationalize commitments to Leaving No One Behind that are firmly embedded in the 2030 Agenda and across all of the Sustainable Development Goals.

With this mandate, as part of the Government of Canada's implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, WAGE works with Employment and Social Development Canada, the lead federal department, and other responsible federal departments and agencies to implement the SDGs. Specifically, WAGE focuses on coordination of federal initiatives under SDG 5: Achieve gender equality and empower all women and girls, however, as outlined below, WAGE initiatives also contribute to several other SDGs.

Gender-based analysis plus

General information

Institutional GBA Plus Capacity

Introduction

Gender-Based Analysis Plus (GBA Plus) is an analytical tool used to support the development of responsive and inclusive policies, programs, and other initiatives. GBA Plus is a process for understanding systemic inequalities and to uncover barriers faced by people in equitably benefiting from government supports and from opportunities to fully participate in society. GBA Plus provides guidance and a roadmap to uncover how systemic barriers impact people, which people are disproportionately impacted both by the issue being addressed and by the initiative being considered. GBA Plus provides a process to consider the ways in which initiatives can be tailored to tackle inequalities and to remove or mitigate barriers to accessing and/or benefitting from government initiatives so that they meet the diverse needs of people.

GBA Plus is an intersectional analysis, where multiple identity and contextual factors need to be considered. Intersecting identities relate to the combination of factors that influence how people experience the world around them. These factors include but are not limited to a person's gender, sex, race, ethnicity, Indigenous identity, age, sexual orientation, socio-economic conditions, geographical location, and (dis)ability. GBA Plus is also an ongoing process that is most impactful when undertaken at the very beginning of the process and carried through to all stages of initiative development, implementation, monitoring and evaluation.

The federal government has sustained its commitment to GBA Plus for nearly 30 years. Canada first committed to mainstreaming equality as part of its response to the United Nations' Beijing Declaration and Platform for Action in 1995 from the Fourth World Conference on Women. The original focus for the analysis was primarily as it relates to gender differences (1995-2011) and became increasingly intersectional over time to reflect the diversity within groups and that every person's experience is shaped by a unique combination of factors. In 2011, the Government of Canada added the "Plus" to GBA Plus as a visible reminder of the need to expand the scope of the analysis to include a range of identity and structural factors, with a focus on their intersections.

To remain responsive to the issues of the day, GBA Plus has evolved through a process of continuous improvement and the scope and scale of its application has continued to grow. WAGE continues to work with partners across the federal government to enhance the government-wide implementation of GBA Plus and to ensure robust application across government on all government business.

This sustained commitment has allowed for significant progress to be made with GBA Plus currently firmly integrated across all government decision-making processes. This includes in the approval process for initiatives through mandatory requirements for GBA Plus in Memoranda to Cabinet, and in Treasury Board submissions, as well as in all budget proposals. The Canadian Gender Budgeting Act firmly embeds equality, fairness and inclusion as an ongoing part of the federal government's budgetary and financial management processes. GBA Plus requirements are also included in other legislative initiatives including the Impact Assessment Act, the Immigration and Refugee Protection Act and the Accessible Canada Act.

Robust and intersectional GBA Plus contributes to a range of government strategies and priorities and is designed to help ensure that "no one is left behind" by promoting equality, fairness, and inclusion of all by leveraging government policies (e.g., fiscal, social protection) to progressively achieve greater equality. Leave No One Behind is a Universal Value and a foundational principle of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. In September 2015, Canada and all other 192 United Nations Member States adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which includes a global call to action to eradicate poverty, end discrimination and exclusion and reduce the inequalities and vulnerabilities that risk leaving people behind.

Institutional GBA Plus Capacity

WAGE is the lead federal department responsible for advancing gender equality, including with respect to sex, sexual orientation, gender identity and expression through the inclusion of people of all genders, including women, in Canada's economic, social, and political life.

The Department is also mandated to promote a greater understanding of intersectionality which is a fundamental aspect of the design, delivery monitoring and evaluation of GBA Plus as well as that of all programs and initiatives undertaken by WAGE.

Applying GBA Plus to all initiatives undertaken at WAGE ensures that diversity, inclusion, and accessibility considerations are embedded in the decision-making process, allowing for more responsive and inclusive initiatives that meet the needs of diverse groups of people.

As a centre of expertise for advancing gender equality and supporting the application of GBA Plus across government decision-making processes, WAGE works to:

Promote a greater understanding of GBA Plus as a tool for advancing fairness, equality, and inclusion;
Provide guidance, develop tools and training, support the implementation of GBA Plus across federal departments and agencies; and
Contribute to evidence-based practices, including those related to policy and program development, and gender budgeting.

The following frameworks, governance bodies and accountability mechanisms support the systematic application of GBA Plus in WAGE's activities and helps ensure that GBA Plus is integrated into all departmental decision-making processes:

GBA Plus Directorate:

The Department's GBA Plus Directorate has 14 FTE's that will be specifically dedicated to the implementation of GBA Plus in 2023-24, which includes WAGE's GBA Plus Champion. The GBA Plus Champion reports to the Deputy Minister (DM) and works with senior managers and employees to promote robust GBA Plus across all Departmental practices. The GBA Plus Directorate supports the GBA Plus Champion and the Department more broadly by providing oversight, guidance and accountability for how GBA Plus is integrated throughout WAGE's Treasury Board Submissions, Memoranda to Cabinet, legislation, regulations, budget proposals and other initiatives.

In addition to ensuring that WAGE decisions and activities are informed by robust GBA Plus insights, the GBA Plus Directorate supports all federal departments and agencies in applying GBA Plus in their contexts and functional areas. It provides policy guidance, develops and disseminates learning materials and training tools, and organizes events to support GBA Plus integration across the federal system. To achieve this, WAGE:

Promotes coordination in the application of GBA Plus across federal departments and thematic areas, by hosting quarterly interdepartmental meetings of GBA Plus Focal Points.
Facilitates knowledge-sharing and collaboration platforms for a wide range of stakeholders, including federal-provincial/territorial networks.
Coordinates monitoring and evaluation activities to support accountability and a whole-of-government approach to GBA Plus, including:
- administers the annual GBA Plus Implementation Survey to assess system-wide performance, learn about ongoing challenges, identify impactful practices and leverage findings to plan and prioritize actions;
- provides regular updates to the Public Service Management Advisory Committee (PSMAC) – a Deputy Minister level committee with representatives from approximately 45 federal departments;
- supports Finance Canada, Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat and the Privy Council Office in exercising their challenge function and ensuring the integration of GBA Plus considerations as a mandatory part of key government decision-making processes; and
- collaborates with a variety of partners to design and deliver training and other initiatives to build capacity for the application of GBA Plus to decision-making.

WAGE's Departmental Results Framework (DRF):

The Departmental Results Framework (DRF) is WAGE's performance measurement framework. It presents the Core Responsibility, the results the organization is seeking to achieve, and the indicators to measure outcomes. The DRF is complemented by Performance Information Profiles (PIPs), which support performance measurement, evaluation and reporting for each Program in WAGE's Program Inventory. Gender, diversity and inclusion considerations are incorporated throughout WAGE's DRF and PIPs, which form the basis of annual plans and performance reports including the Departmental Plan and the Departmental Results Report. As a result, the DRF and PIPs act as accountability mechanisms to ensure that GBA Plus is integrated into departmental decision-making processes.

Executive Committee (EXCOM):

The Executive Committee (EXCOM) is WAGE's senior decision-making and priority-setting body. It is chaired by the Deputy Minister and composed of senior management from all departmental areas and functions, including the GBA Plus Champion. EXCOM meetings take place weekly and serve to establish priorities, oversee the delivery of the organization's work, and take stock of progress. As a permanent member of EXCOM, the GBA Plus Champion ensures that GBA Plus is considered in all departmental activities and integrated into all decision-making processes.

Diversity and Inclusion Committee (D&I):

The Diversity and Inclusion Committee aims to implement initiatives to increase diverse representation and support inclusion in the department; raise awareness about diversity and inclusion and the challenges diverse staff face; celebrate diversity at WAGE; and provide departmental staff a forum for discussing contemporary issues related to social inclusion.

Indigenous Advisory Network (IAN):

The Indigenous Advisory Network is comprised of Indigenous employees within WAGE. It serves as a platform and community to provide advice and mentoring to one another, to support and foster wellness among Indigenous employees, to provide opportunity for professional development, and to tap into and leverage other networks and relevant resources.

Reconciliation Circle:

The Reconciliation Circle was created to facilitate intra-departmental collaboration on the development, implementation, and monitoring of WAGE's Reconciliation Framework. The Reconciliation Circle is comprised of employee representatives from across the department.

Indigenous Women's Circle (IWC):

The Indigenous Women's Circle is chaired by the Deputy Minister and plays an advisory role to WAGE. The membership of the IWC includes representation from First Nations, Métis, and Inuit women, youth, and Elders from a broad from a range of sectors across the country. The IWC provides strategic guidance, as well as expertise, to inform federal efforts to address the systemic inequalities that Indigenous women experience, particularly those related to issues of GBV, economic insecurity, and Indigenous leadership. IWC's advice and guidance provides an opportunity to learn from best practices in both Indigenous communities and the Government of Canada.

Forum of Federal-Provincial and Territorial Ministers responsible for the Status of Women:

The Department co-chairs the Forum of Federal-Provincial-Territorial (FPT) Ministers responsible for the Status of Women which meets at least once a year at the Ministerial level and monthly at the working level. Since 2014, one of the ongoing ministerial priorities for the FPT Forum has been GBA Plus to advance gender and diversity analysis approaches across FPT jurisdictions. Since that time, significant work has been done by the Department in collaboration with the provinces and territories in identifying promising practices to applying GBA Plus. For example, in December 2021, to address gaps that create challenges to measuring GBA Plus impacts and to proceed with a more meaningful evaluation, the FPT Ministers endorsed the implementation of a two-year plan to develop a common data collection tool^{Footnote 1}.

Highlights of GBA Plus Results Reporting Capacity by Program
Expertise and Outreach	The Expertise and Outreach Program includes the Department's policy, research, external relations, awareness, capacity-building and commemoration functions. Strengthening Capacity to do GBA Plus - To better position the Department in promoting a greater understanding of GBA Plus and in supporting the capacity of federal departments to conduct GBA Plus at all stages of policy development and program delivery, including gender-based budgeting, WAGE conducts an annual government-wide GBA Plus Implementation Survey. This survey serves to collect data on different aspects of GBA Plus implementation, including capacity, data, and research used in GBA Plus; barriers to GBA Plus; and examples of initiatives where GBA Plus has been applied and its impact. Ultimately, this serves to ensure that when policies, programs, services and other initiatives are being developed, the Government of Canada designs better, more responsive and inclusive initiatives. Research – Since 2016, WAGE has had a gender equality research program that has funding to collect data and evidence to inform initiatives to advance gender equality. In gathering data and research, the department focuses on intersectionality and the disaggregation of data by identity factors in order to ensure a comprehensive understanding of issues that can be experienced differently by certain groups, including: Indigenous Peoples; women and girls; men and boys; two-spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, Plus (2SLGBTQI+) individuals; visible minorities; those living in northern, rural, and remote communities; people with disabilities; children and youth; people living on a low income; newcomers and immigrants to Canada; religious minorities; and seniors. These data and research inform direction of WAGE and other government of Canada initiatives by powering more robust GBA Plus throughout the lifecycle of these initiatives, including allowing the department to monitor the impacts of its initiatives from a GBA Plus perspective. In addition, these data and research are disseminated publicly to inform initiatives and allow for GBA Plus monitoring among intersectoral partners and other orders of government.
Community Action and Innovation	The Community Action and Innovation program provides grants and contributions to implement projects designed to address systemic barriers to gender equality. In 2023-24, this program will have impacts that support the pillars and goals of the Gender Results Framework. WAGE applies GBA Plus to the lifecycle of its initiatives under this program. Disaggregated data and population-specific research inform priorities for Calls for Proposals for funding. In addition, for each of the projects funded, WAGE collects, analyzes and reports on disaggregated data related to the outcomes and impacts of the initiatives. Mandatory annual data collection and reporting templates were established for all funding recipients and include the collection of data disaggregated by identity factors. This allows the department to monitor the uptake, reach, and impact of its funding for specific groups, and to make course corrections to ensure that barriers are mitigated and equal access to program benefits are achieved.

Lead department	Women and Gender Equality Canada
Federal partner organization(s)	Department of National Defence; Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada; Justice Canada, Public Health Agency of Canada; Public Safety Canada; Royal Canadian Mounted Police
Start date	November 23, 2017
End date	Ongoing
Description	It's Time: Canada's Strategy to Prevent and Address Gender-Based Violence(the Strategy) is the Government of Canada's response to gender-based violence (GBV). Its initiatives are organized across three pillars: preventing gender-based violence; supporting survivors and their families; and promoting responsive legal and justice systems. The Strategy takes a whole-of-government approach to prevent and address GBV, bringing together federal initiatives and aligning with provincial and territorial efforts, enabling enhanced collaboration. Women and Gender Equality Canada ensures the overall coordination of the Strategy through an interdepartmental mechanism. The Strategy is the federal government's contribution to the National Action Plan to End Gender-Based Violence, which was launched in November 2022. As a result, in 2023-24, WAGE will build on the existing Strategy and bolster its leadership and contribution to this Federal-Provincial-Territorial framework. The Government of Canada has invested a total of $863 million and $44 million per year ongoing. Overall, the Strategy has advanced shared outcomes through the following actions undertaken by the current seven departments funded under the Strategy: Women and Gender Equality Canada (WAGE) received funding to establish the GBV Knowledge Centre, enhance data collection and research on GBV, develop a strategy that engages youth about online GBV, fund the development and implementation of promising practices that support underserved survivors through the GBV Program. With Budget 2021 funding, WAGE is expanding upon this work by enhancing the Gender-Based Violence Program to support initiatives that engage men and boys, prevent and address human trafficking, and provide support for testing and implementing best practices; supporting GBV research and knowledge mobilization; and bolstering the capacity of Indigenous women and 2SLGBTQI+ organizations to provide GBV prevention programming. Public Health Agency of Canada (PHAC) received funding to support the implementation and testing of programs to prevent gender-based violence and family violence (including child maltreatment, teen/youth dating violence, intimate partner violence, and elder abuse); and to support the development of training and resources for health and allied professionals about GBV, trauma-informed care, and safety planning. Public Safety Canada (PS) received funding to enhance efforts to address online child exploitation and develop preventative bullying and cyberbullying initiatives. Department of National Defence (DND) received funding as part of Budget 2017 to enhance Family Violence Teams and to provide support to community-based service providers to support members of the Canadian Armed Forces and their families who are affected by sexual misconduct. Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) received funding to develop training on cultural awareness and humility, and the use of trauma-informed approaches. These investments are improving capacity across the RCMP to effectively respond to those affected by violence in a gender and culturally sensitive and responsive manner, reinforce understanding of survivors' rights, and raise awareness of myths pertaining to sexual assaults. The RCMP also received funding to increase its capacity to combat online child sexual exploitation, in support of domestic and international operational investigations, covert online operations, specialized victim identification investigations, and operational research and technological solutions. The funding will also enhance capacity to identify Canadian transnational child sex offenders. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC) received funding to address GBV through enhancements to the Settlement Program, including developing a coordinated approach across the settlement sector, GBV training for settlement workers, and enhanced, place-based services for clients. Justice Canada (JUS) received funding to ensure access to free legal advice and legal representation for survivors of sexual assault and Intimate Partner Violence (IPV), as well as to provide additional supports for victims of IPV to navigate the family justice system. In addition, JUS received funding to support supervision services for parenting time in cases of separation and divorce to protect the safety and well-being of children and families. Learn more about the Strategy
Governance structure	The strategy promotes a whole-of-government approach and includes federal partners, and other complementary federal departments and agencies funded by the Strategy (Horizontal Initiative partners), and others whose actions support the overarching goals of the Strategy. Interdepartmental Mechanism While WAGE is the overall lead of federal efforts to prevent and address GBV, many federal departments and agencies actively contribute per their distinct mandates to these efforts. WAGE is responsible for coordinating and overseeing the implementation of the Federal GBV Strategy, in partnership and coordination with federal departments and agencies, including the six other federal organizations funded by the Strategy/involved in this Horizontal Initiative. The Department does so by chairing an interdepartmental mechanism composed of three committees at the Assistant Deputy Minister, Director General and Director levels.

Planning highlights	In 2023-24, WAGE will continue to operationalize the Gender-Based Violence (GBV) Knowledge Centre and its online platform, launched in December 2018. As a focal point of the GBV Strategy, the GBV Knowledge Centre facilitates the alignment of existing federal resources, coordinates federal initiatives, supports the sharing of research and data, ensures alignment with provincial and territorial strategies, and accounts publicly for results. Over the reporting period, WAGE will: Further augment gender-based violence research and knowledge mobilization, with funding supporting community research models, working with Statistics Canada to develop a national femicide database, and enhancing the sample size of national gender-based violence surveys. Continue to lead and coordinate the implementation of the Federal GBV Strategy, leveraging the GBV Knowledge Centre to support evidence-based decision-making. Continue to provide funding to organizations in the GBV sector to support the development and implementation of promising practices to address gaps in supports for victims and survivors and their families. Continue to engage with funded and complementary federal departments to advance the Government of Canada efforts to end GBV. Maintain and expand the GBV Knowledge Centre's online platform by ensuring that content is accurate, updated and revised on an ongoing basis and adding evidence-based resources and products. Support the implementation of the Federal Pathway to Address Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls and 2SLGBTQQIA+ People, the federal government's contribution to the 2021 Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women, Girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA+ People National Action Plan: Ending Violence Against Indigenous Women, Girls, and 2SLGBTQQIA+ People in response to the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girl's Calls for Justice, in partnership with First Nations, Inuit, and Métis Peoples. Continue to implement an initiative to bolster the capacity of Indigenous women's and 2SLGBTQQIA+ organizations to provide GBV prevention programming. This initiative was announced in Budget 2021 and is a key deliverable of the Federal Pathway. In 2023-24, DND will continue to reinforce education and awareness, while ensuring that Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) members and their families are supported by services received through Family Violence Advisory Team programming, the Sexual Assault Centre contribution program and the Community Support for Sexual Misconduct Survivors grant program^{Footnote 1}. DND will: ensure that each Base/Wing across Canada has an active team with standardized policies and procedures in place to support their work. update the CAF Family Violence Policy. continue the expansion of the revamped Healthy Relationships Campaign and a suite of new educational materials for CAF leadership, members and families to increase the understanding of the spectrum of violence and the support services that are available in their local communities. promote a coordinated approach across DND and the CAF to ensure that all necessary stakeholders are engaged with Canada's Strategy to Prevent and Address Gender-Based Violence. continue up to ten projects with Sexual Assault service providers near CAF bases across Canada. In 2023-24, IRCC will continue to support the development of a coordinated, settlement sector-wide approach to GBV (ngbv.ca) to increase the capacity of front-line settlement workers, as well as enhance place-based services for newcomers and refugees. With collaboration between the settlement and anti-violence sectors, this strategy will support the development of consistent GBV policy and protocol resources, as well as training that is culturally competent and trauma-informed. The bilingual 'Bridges to Safety' training will improve the capacity of settlement workers to effectively respond to GBV, as well as adopt a preventative response that strengthens the capacity of newcomers and refugees, including men and boys, to engage on the issue. The GBV Partnership will also advance best practices that address emerging GBV issues for these sectors, along with effective resources for stakeholders to support a strong and strategic cross-sectoral approach. In 2023-24, JUS expects to support funding agreements across 12 jurisdictions for multi-year funding to provide independent legal advice and legal representation (ILA/ILR) to victims and survivors of sexual assault and IPV. ILA/ILR will be delivered by provincial and territorial governments (PTs), as well as legal clinics and non-governmental organisations. In addition, JUS expects to support funding agreements in 11 jurisdictions with provincial governments, community partners and stakeholders to improve support and access to justice for victims of intimate partner violence who are involved in the family justice system. Also, it is expected that supervision services for parenting time will be enhanced or made available in seven jurisdictions, with ongoing discussion with other PTs to ensure this investment is accessible to as many regions as possible, and to equip health and other professionals to recognize, prevent, and respond safely to gender-based violence. Informed by research, policy, and stakeholder recommendations, PHAC will launch and administer new solicitations related to youth dating violence, child maltreatment prevention, and equipping professionals to recognize and respond safely to GBV. In 2023-24, PHAC will continue to support 30 multi-year projects to prevent gender-based violence and its impacts, using health promotion approaches. These diverse projects include programs to teach youth healthy relationships and build the skills of parents and caregivers to support positive parenting and alternatives to harsh discipline. PHAC will also continue to support 31 projects focused on preventing family violence, including intimate partner violence, child maltreatment, and elder abuse. These projects will contribute to addressing evidence gaps and supporting priority populations such as older Canadians and 2SLGBTQIA+ children and youth. To connect projects and build capacity among researchers and service providers working in the field, PHAC will continue to support three communities of practice (focused on teen dating violence and family violence). In 2023-24, PS will continue to support the Canadian Centre for Child Protection's Project Arachnid, a web-crawler that detects child-sexual abuse material and sends take-down notices to service providers. PS will also support a campaign led by White Ribbon, an organization dedicated to engaging men and boys in preventing gender-based violence, to expand their online sexual exploitation prevention program for youth in Nova Scotia and Ontario. In 2023-24, PS will undertake research, awareness and intervention activities aimed at preventing and addressing bullying and cyberbullying behaviours. These activities will include: supporting the implementation of two new projects and the continuation of community-based bullying/cyberbullying intervention projects. conduct background/preparatory work for an expert panel to establish a common definition of cyberbullying for Canada. Experts will include representatives from PS, various Government of Canada departments (ex: Justice Canada, PHAC, Health Canada, etc.), PTs, academics and NGOs. continue to monitor and provide advice on the evaluations conducted by recipients funded by the National Crime Prevention Strategy for interventions aimed at preventing bullying and cyberbullying; and, supporting a school roadshow for students in grade 7/8 on the harms and consequences of cyberbullying and the risk of online child sexual exploitation. In 2023-24, the RCMP will continue to offer the mandatory cultural awareness and humility training to all employees, as well as the trauma-informed training that is currently available and mandatory for all employees who interact with the public. These training courses will provide employees with knowledge and skills that will improve capacity across the RCMP to effectively respond to GBV in a gender and culturally sensitive manner, including in response to GBV against Indigenous women and girls. The RCMP's Sexual Assault Review Team (SART) has reviewed over 30,000 sexual assault case files and continues to review unfounded sexual assault investigations. The RCMP continues to use what has been learned from this process to strengthen police training and awareness, investigative accountability, victim support, public education and communication. The RCMP will also continue to enhance its capacity to combat online sexual exploitation of children and transnational child sex offenders.
