Women and Gender Equity Directorate

The Women and Gender Equity Directorate is a Government of Yukon department that works to advance equitable economic, legal and social outcomes of all genders and sexual orientations. Our team also works to advance the integration of intersectional considerations throughout government. We do this by conducting research and analysis, leading inter-departmental projects, and providing financial support to organizations that advance equity of genders and sexual orientations.
