Ensure strong and effective gender and culturally sensitive training policies for federal front-line law enforcement officers.

What success looks like

Increased cultural competency and trauma-informed gender-based violence training across the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP).

Government's narrative on progress

The RCMP is designing and developing two training courses that will be delivered to RCMP employees over a three-year period, starting in 2019-20. The courses: “Developing Cultural Awareness and Humility” and “Using a Trauma-Informed Approach”, will improve capacity across the RCMP to effectively respond to GBV, in a gender and culturally sensitive manner. This includes violence against Indigenous women and girls. All training material will be examined using the GBA+ tool.

Note: this is the government's own description, not an independent assessment.
