註釋This report provides information on Canada's national and international activities and accomplishments that address the needs of Canadian women and that will bring them closer to equality with men. It begins with a review and appraisal at the national level, describing the situation of women in the early 1980s as background to describing changes since then. These changes are reviewed under the following headings: sharing of power and decision-making at all levels; mechanisms to promote advancement of women; awareness of and commitment to nationally and internationally recognised women's human rights; poverty; women's access to and participation in the definition of economic structures and policies, and the productive process itself; access to education, health, and employment; violence against women; effects on women of continuing armed or other kinds of conflicts; use of mass media to promote women's positive contributions to society; and adequate recognition and support for women's contribution to natural resource management and environmental conservation. The report then reviews and appraises international activities under similar headings. The report concludes with information on future domestic and international strategic goals and activities to advance women's equality.
