Research projects funded by Status of Women Canada on this theme examine issues such as gender implications of Canada's commitments on labour mobility in trade agreements; the effect of trade agreements on the provision of health care in Canada; the social, economic, cultural and environmental impacts of free trade agreements on Canadian Aboriginal women; building Canadian models of integrating gender perspective into trade agreements; the repercussions of the trade agreements on the proactive employment equity measures for women that are applicable to private-sector employers in Canada; and the effects of trade agreements on women with disabilities. [...] A complete list of the research projects funded under this call for proposals is included at the end of this report."--Preface. |
