Through this 13-month project, the Assembly of First Nations (AFN) will increase its ability to prevent or address gender-based violence against Indigenous women, girls, or 2SLGBTQQIA+ people. This will be achieved by identifying remedies for any future gender-based discrimination, or discrimination based on sexual orientation, leading to a more respectful atmosphere for all AFN member First Nations, staff, and partners.

A literature, document and policy review and analysis will be conducted within the AFN. This will include a review of all applicable laws, AFN policies and code of conduct. During this review, there will be engagement and briefing with First Nations leadership, including internal AFN committees and Chiefs in Assembly forums. The process for addressing allegations and complaints will be critically examined with the engagement of an external firm to support survey design, methodology, sampling, and data analysis.

A report will be developed, which will include recommendations for policy and process changes to make within the Assembly of First Nations; and to ensure AFN as a role model in ending gender-based violence.
