ICYMI: Feds not doing enough to make sure gender-based analysis in place: auditor
Gender-based analysis plus is used to take stock of inequalities and specifically how gender and other aspects of one’s identity can affect how well a person is able to access programs and services.
The Privy Council Office and Treasury Board identified challenges to putting gender-based analysis in place but did not take full advantage of the insights gained to help improve its use across government, the report said. Hogan said if the government continues to face challenges in applying gender-based analysis plus, decision makers will not have the information to understand how different groups of women, men and gender-diverse people experience programs, which in turn may possibly affect how well they work for these groups.
