| Description |
It’s Time: Canada’s Strategy to Prevent and Address Gender-Based Violence (Federal GBV 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 Federal GBV Strategy takes a whole-of-government approach to prevent and address GBV, bringing together federal initiatives, aligning and ensuring complementarity with provincial/territorial initiatives, and enabling enhanced collaboration. Women and Gender Equality Canada ensures the overall coordination of the Strategy through interdepartmental governance structures.
Overall, the Strategy advances shared outcomes through the following actions undertaken by the seven partner departments and agencies:
|
| Governance structures |
The Federal GBV Strategy promotes a whole-of-government approach and includes funded federal partners, and other complementary federal partners, who support the overarching goals of the Federal GBV Strategy. For example, by leading the horizontal coordination process on the Federal GBV Strategy, WAGE is engaging its partners to ensure synergies with the Family Violence Initiative, led by the Public Health Agency of Canada, and the Interdepartmental Working Group on Violence and Victimization. Horizontal Initiative Oversight Committee and Steering Committee Federal efforts to prevent and address GBV are being undertaken by numerous federal departments and agencies, to address this issue from various angles. WAGE, as Canada’s policy lead on GBV efforts, is responsible for coordinating and overseeing the implementation of the federal GBV Strategy and other federal efforts, in partnership and coordination with other federal partners. To ensure oversight, coordination and accountability, a committee has been established at the Assistant Deputy Minister level, chaired by the Assistant Deputy Minister of Strategic Policy at WAGE, and comprised of all partner departments and agencies working to address GBV. This oversight committee is supported by a Steering Committee at the Director General level. Secretariat to support the National Action Plan to End Gender-based Violence A dedicated GBV Secretariat has been established at WAGE to coordinate the ongoing work towards the development and implementation of the National Action Plan to End Gender-based Violence, and to continue engagement with provinces, territories, Indigenous partners, gender-based violence experts, stakeholders and most importantly victims/survivors of GBV. In addition, the Secretariat serves as a focal point for actions and policies related to GBV across Canada, and is responsible for:
Federal-Provincial-Territorial Forum of Ministers responsible for the Status of Women The Federal-Provincial-Territorial (FPT) Forum of Ministers responsible for the Status of Women, which was established in 1972, meets annually at the ministerial level to share knowledge and information, explore ways to advance equality for women and girls, and undertake collaborative initiatives in priority areas, as agreed upon by consensus. One of these collaborative areas is preventing and addressing GBV. WAGE is the federal chair of the FPT Forum, and co-chairs with a provincial/territorial Minister Responsible for the Status of Women on a rotational basis. In addition to annual face-to-face meetings, ministerial teleconference occurs on an ad hoc basis to discuss key issues. Senior officials-level meetings and conference calls are held throughout the year to advance collaborative work mandated by the ministers at the annual FPT Ministerial Meeting. To carry out the work set out at the annual FPT Ministerial Meeting, task teams made up of FPT officials are established. These task teams conduct their respective work/projects and report back to ministers the following year. A Task Team has been established to advance work related to GBV and access to justice. The Forum has also provided leadership for the development of the first ever National Action Plan to End Gender-Based Violence, which was launched in November 2022. This Plan is focused on preventing and ending gender-based violence across Canada. |

| Results highlights |
WAGE In 2022-23, WAGE will continue to operationalize the Gender-Based Violence (GBV) Knowledge Centre and its online platform, launched in December 2018. As the 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 continued to:
DND In 2022-23, DND continued to reinforce education and awareness, while ensuring that Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) members and their families were supported by services received through Family Violence Advisory Team (FVAT) programming and the Community Support for Sexual Misconduct Survivors grant program. DND has:
IRCC In 2022-23, IRCC continued to support the development of a coordinated, settlement sector-wide approach to GBV to increase the capacity of front-line settlement workers, and enhance place-based services for newcomers and refugees. With collaboration between the settlement and anti-violence sectors, this strategy supports the development of consistent GBV policy and protocol resources, as well as training that is culturally competent and trauma-informed. This training has improved the capacity of settlement workers to effectively respond to GBV, as well as adopt a preventative, awareness-raising approach that strengthens the capacity of newcomers and refugees, including men and boys, to engage newcomers on the issue. The GBV Partnership has also advanced 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. Over 260 settlement sector staff have completed the Bridges to Safety online course and 220 people are registered to participate in the National GBV Champions Network. In addition, over 18 client GBV awareness workshops were held across the country using new resources developed by the GBV Partnership, with 220 clients in attendance. The project website (ngbv.ca) continues to be a hub of resources and information for settlement organizations and has been accessed by more than 7,700 people since its development. Justice In 2022-23, Justice continued 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. In addition, an agreement was concluded in the 13th jurisdiction, resulting in agreements in all provinces and territories. ILA/ILR was delivered by provincial and territorial governments (PTs), as well as legal clinics and non-governmental organisations. JUS continued to support funding agreements with five provinces, and supported new funding agreements in five additional jurisdictions with provinces and stakeholders, including two projects with national scope, to improve support and access to justice for victims of intimate partner violence who are involved in the family justice system. Supervision services for parenting time were also enhanced or made available in six jurisdictions. PHAC In 2022-23, the Agency began managing agreements with 28 new projects funded through the Preventing and Addressing Family Violence - the Health Perspective Program. Projects funded are delivering and evaluating health promotion programs and interventions that prevent family violence and improve health outcomes for survivors of violence. Funded projects reach children, youth, older adults, and families affected by violence. For example: Access Alliance, in Toronto, works with Expressive Arts Therapists to offer programming with Afghan and Ukrainian refugees, with the goal of improving the mental health and well-being of newcomers who are at risk of, or experiencing, GBV (started April 2022) Based at the Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières and delivering their program in four regions of Québec, Projet STEP designs and implements a prenatal program for survivors of complex trauma aiming to break the intergenerational cycle of family violence. Based at the University of Toronto, RISE is a community-based elder mistreatment response program that takes a restorative approach to working with both older adult victims and others, including alleged harmers, to support the goals of the older adult – including preventing further mistreatment, holding the harmer accountable, and repairing the relationship where it is possible. The Agency also continued to manage agreements with 4 remaining projects funded through the Supporting the Health of Survivors of Family Violence program, launched in 2015. This included projects to address intimate partner violence and child maltreatment, and to build the capacity of professionals. The Agency continued to manage agreements with 34 projects through the Preventing Gender-Based Violence: The Health Perspective Program. This Program includes projects to prevent youth dating violence and child maltreatment, and to build the capacity of professionals to respond to gender-based violence. For example: In British-Columbia, Réseau-Femmes is delivering and evaluating the Jeunes leaders des relations saines (JLRS) program for francophone adolescents age 14 to 18, that aims to prevent violence with an anti-discriminatory and trauma-informed approach, involving youth, young leaders, school staff and parents/guardians. PREVNet’s National Youth Advisory Committee, comprised of 13 members age 16-27, produced a 2-part podcasts on emotional abuse, created short animated videos on consent, and published Self-Worth zine to help other young people check in with their self-worth and how their relationships are impacting it (April 2022). Liard Aboriginal Women Society (LAWS) is implementing Tsʼídāne ā ́ʼ nezen? (Youth for Dignity), a project that mobilizes youth in grades 8-12 as anti-violence leaders, including by promoting connection to Kaska cultural principles, protocols, and teachings related to dignity and safety in relationships. In 2022, LAWS obtained accreditation for the program, allowing participants to receive school credits, supporting its adaptation in other Yukon communities, and supporting its sustainability. In 2022-23, funded projects have engaged 12,003 participants experiencing or at risk of experiencing family and gender-based violence (including youth, parents, community members, children, infants, and older adults), and 15,629 service providers/professionals. Projects also developed 479 knowledge products and hosted 295 knowledge events, reaching a total audience of 2,115,780 professionals, service providers, and community members. Interim findings suggest increased skills and knowledge relating to healthy relationships and positive parenting, as well as increasing capacity amongst professionals/service providers to implement trauma-informed practices. The evidence from effective interventions continued to inform policies and programs. Four communities of practice funded by the Agency supported family violence projects, teen/youth dating violence projects, 2SLGTQQIA+ youth projects and Family law practitioners through networking, capacity building, and knowledge mobilization. In addition, in 2022-23, PHAC supported the Centre for Global Education (CGE) to create Pride Guide 2022: Youth Strategies for Tackling Gender-Based Violence in Our Schools. Project activities were initiated in 2021/22 and completed by CGE in 2022/23, culminating in the publication of Pride Guide 2022 on Canada.ca in September 2022. The Guide shares practical strategies proposed by youth to address gender-based violence in schools, and highlights the challenges that 2SLGBTQ+ youth in Canada face, including the impact of COVID-19. The guide also explores the importance of supportive teachers and staff members to 2SLGBTQ+ students, and provides advice for educators on using inclusive language and how to support 2SLGBTQ+ students. Pride Guide 2022 has been disseminated to youth, school health and GBV stakeholders across Canada, including via a youth-led virtual presentation to 70 participants from 11 provinces and territories in December 2022. PS In 2022-23, PS continued 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 also began five-year funding of White Ribbon’s Phase II of Preventing Online Sexual Exploitation Together: Responding to the Critical Need program to expand their online sexual exploitation prevention program for youth in Nova Scotia and Ontario. In addition, PS will undertake research, awareness and intervention activities aimed at preventing and addressing bullying and cyberbullying behaviours. In 2022-23, these activities included:
RCMP In 2022-23, the RCMP developed a sexual offence investigations course, and made it available to all regular members of the RCMP. The course highlights values and approaches to guide every investigation, including the concepts of the different ranges of reactions to trauma and conducting investigations using a trauma-informed victim-centred approach, and demonstrating an understanding of diversity and the distinct impacts experienced by vulnerable communities. The RCMP also developed a wide array of training and resources that were made available to RCMP personnel to better enable them to respond to cases of gender-based violence and supporting survivors. In 2022-23, SART assisted in the development of a 4-day Sexual Offence Law and Interview Workshop. The workshop is delivered in class by a retired RCMP polygraph examiner. Support is provided in the workshop by Subject Matter Resources (SMRs) in the role of syndicate leaders who lead scheduled break-out sessions for syndicate group work. The syndicate group sessions provide an opportunity for candidates to apply their learned interview skills through practical exercises tailored to a scenario with a sexual offence context. The workshop mandate is to provide investigators with:
In 2022-23, Canada increased the number of Canadian victims of online child sexual exploitation identified and uploaded to INTERPOL’s International Child Sexual Exploitation database by approximately 24%. This surpasses the National Child Exploitation Crime Centre’s goal of a 10% increase annually. The RCMP’s National Child Exploitation Crime Centre is Canada's leading contributor to the INTERPOL International Child Sexual Exploitation Database. While its backlog grew slightly, the National Sex Offender Registry and High Risk Sexual Offender Program increased the number of completed risk assessments by approximately 31%, with 3,494 completed during the reporting period. Using the provisions for prevention under the authority of the Sex Offender Information Registration Act, the Program shared information about potentially dangerous travelling child sex offenders to foreign law enforcement. In 2022-23, as COVID-19 travel restrictions were lifted, the Program saw a 520% increase in the number of these proactive disclosures, and a 356% increase in travel notifications, where registered sex offenders reported travel outside of Canada, when compared to 2021-22. Furthermore, the National Sex Offender Registry and High Risk Sexual Offender Program saw a 128% increase in the number of investigations in 2022-23, compared to the previous year. With the addition of more resources, the Program has been able to expand its mandate to include investigations of potential transnational child sex offenders as well as high risk child sex offenders. |
