Since 2018, Canada, through its Rohingya Response Strategy in Bangladesh, has been providing targeted assistance to the impoverished Bengali host communities and Rohingya refugees living in Cox's Bazar, Bangladesh. Under Canada's Feminist International Assistance Policy (FIAP), gender equality and gender-responsive humanitarian action constitute some of the core priority areas for the Canadian government. In Cox's Bazar, Global Affairs Canada (GAC) funds programmes to empower women and girls through skill-based and livelihood training and to provide sexual and reproductive health services. However, scholars like Jennifer Cadesky and Rebecca Tiessen caution against the conflation of gender equality and empowerment, arguing that it often leads to short-term, quick-fix solutions without any long-term benefit to women. Canada needs to go beyond funding recovery assistance programmes at a surface level. Without understanding social norms and cultural practices that influence women's participation, mobility, and visibility in public spaces, gender equality in Canada's response strategy will be limited to only checklist goals.

从性别敏感转向性别变革行动:加拿大在孟加拉国罗辛亚应对战略中取得和错过的成就

自2018年以来,加拿大通过孟加拉国罗兴亚应对战略,一直向贫困的孟加拉东道社区和居住在孟加拉国考克斯巴扎尔的罗兴亚难民提供有针对性的援助。根据加拿大女权主义国际援助政策(FIAP),性别平等和促进性别平等的人道主义行动构成了加拿大政府的一些核心优先领域。在科克斯巴扎尔,加拿大全球事务部 (GAC) 资助了一些项目,通过基于技能和生计的培训来增强妇女和女孩的权能,并提供性健康和生殖健康服务。然而,詹妮弗·卡德斯基(Jennifer Cadesky)和丽贝卡·蒂森(Rebecca Tiessen)等学者警告不要将性别平等和赋权混为一谈,他们认为这往往会导致短期、快速解决方案,而不会为女性带来任何长期利益。加拿大需要超越为表面层面的复苏援助计划提供资金的范围。如果不了解影响妇女在公共场所的参与、流动性和知名度的社会规范和文化习俗,加拿大应对战略中的性别平等将仅限于清单目标。
