This 36-month project will develop a new, contemporary five-year feminist strategic litigation plan (FSL plan) that will enable feminists and gender equality advocates to address systemic gender discrimination more effectively. To do so, it will start by assessing the effectiveness of LEAF’s own past feminist strategic litigation over the last thirty operational years. It will undertake a needs assessment with feminist groups and other key stakeholders to identify intersectional gender equality issues that can be effectively addressed through feminist strategic litigation. The results of both assessments will be used to inform the development of the new 5-year FSL Plan which will be pilot tested with three test cases and broadly disseminated.

This 5-month project will capture promising practices, key policy areas and prevention plans in collaboration with community stakeholders from across Canada. It will build on the crucial work already being done on campuses to address sexual violence by students, faculty and administration while expanding the scope to include gender-based violence with a focus on ensuring those most impacted by gender-based violence including, but not limited to, Indigenous Peoples, sex workers, trans and gender non-binary individuals, newcomers, people with disabilities, LGBTQ2S community members are centered in the framework.
