Purpose

This 14-month project aims to support the coordination and implementation of the “Women’s 7” (W7), one of several official engagement groups facilitating inputs and discussions with civil society and experts, while contributing to improved gender equality outcomes resulting from Canada’s G7 Presidency in 2025. This will be achieved through the engagement of feminist activists and subject matter experts from Canada, G7 countries and the Global South in the gender-based analysis of Canada’s G7 themes and priorities; the gender analysis of previous G7 policy documents and commitments; the development of policy recommendations; and the engagement of G7 officials and gender equality leaders, including Canada, G7 Countries, and the Gender Equality Advisory Council (GEAC). Key activities include the publication of research papers providing a gender-based analysis of Canada’s G7 priorities, the formation of thematic working groups who will provide recommendations on Canada’s G7 priorities, the development of policy documents including a communique, analysis and recommendations, the communication and outreach of W7 policy documentation, and the engagement with the GEAC.
