Gender equality means that diverse groups of women, men, girls and boys, and gender-diverse people are able to participate and contribute to all spheres of life. Canada's feminist approach to foreign policy requires that our international assistance be informed by a gender-based analysis that includes evidence of meaningful consultations with women and/or girls before a project begins. Canada's approach also recognizes that other aspects of identity such as religion, race, and socio-economic class, may contribute to how individuals experience the problem the project is seeking to address.    

Gender-based analysis examines the potential impacts of projects on diverse groups of women and men, girls and boys. It identifies the varied roles played by women and men, girls and boys in the household, community, workplace, political process, and economy. These different roles usually result in women having less control and access to resources and decision making processes than men.     

How are women, men, boys and girls affected differently by the problem your project is seeking to address? ( Maximum 150 words )

How do other identities ( religion , sexuality, age, ethnicity, socio-economic class etc.) of women, men, boys, and girls play into their experiences of the problem? ( Maximum 150 words )          

Were women and/or girls consulted on the project design? Note: co nsultations can include, but are not limited to: speaking to women and/or girls from the local community; speaking to women and other individuals who work for civil society organizations that have worked in the local community; speaking to female and male decision and change-makers who have knowledge of the local community.
