Canada’s defense policy, Strong, Secure, Engaged (SSE) outlines the commitment of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) to demonstrate leadership in reflecting Canadian ideals of diversity, respect and inclusion, including striving for gender equality and building a workforce that leverages the diversity of Canadian society. To operationalize this vision, the CAF is committed to increasing the representation of women in their workforce with a goal of 25% by 2026. Furthermore, there is increasing recognition of the importance of the use of gender-based analysis in assessing the potential impacts of operations on diverse groups of people, taking into account identity factors, such as: age, race, ethnicity, geography, sex, and gender.
