Introduction to GBA Plus
Meet the people who will introduce you to GBA Plus
Gender-based Analysis Plus (or GBA Plus) is about analyzing how people are impacted by the decisions we make.
Have you considered how the issues you address in your work might impact these individuals? Or how gender, culture, ability and other diverse factors might impact the effectiveness of a government initiative?
As a federal public servant, you can use GBA Plus to better address the needs of diverse groups of women, men and gender diverse people.
