| Popis: | The purpose of this paper is to study the Canadian experience of new approaches development for integration of gender-based analysis into the government activities on the federal, provincial and municipal levels. Gender-based analysis is one of the main tools of gender mainstreaming in Canada. The paper analyzes new approaches and definitions of the term «gender-based analysis», which became the result of conceptual shifts in the understanding of the nature of gender-based analysis by several jurisdictions in Canada. It is considered a variety of practical tools – checklists, gender lenses, questions, graphs and specific cases – which are geared specifically toward a specific technical specialization of government agencies in Canada. It is noted that these tools are offered within the methods developed to link gender-based analysis to the functions of government performance. The conclusion is that Canada is a world leader not only in the use of gender-based analysis in the process of public policymaking, but further improvement of the practical tools, and expanding its scope. |
