Institutional GBA Plus Capacity |
The NBC does not have the resources to conduct data analysis and therefore to devote staff to the GBA Plus.
The NBC will continue to recommend the online course on GBA Plus to managers and employees in key sectors (e.g., managers, human resources managers) and to make the training accessible to all employees by posting it on the Intranet.
The NBC will continue to ensure that various identity factors, including gender, age, Aboriginal origin or identity, living with a disability, etc., are taken into account when developing projects and creating or updating services and activities.

- The program has impacts that support the ‘’Poverty reduction, health and well-being'' pillar of the Gender Results Framework as it contributes to the maintenance of good health, both physical and mental.
- This program does not, however, collect data to monitor gender and diversity impacts of the program.
- The maintenance of infrastructure and security program is intended, among other things, to protect natural, cultural and heritage assets so that the NBC can offer users, regardless of their income, gender, age, etc., free and safe access to Battlefields Park, which is an island of nature and freshness in an urban setting as well as a place to practice many sports. By the very fact, the NBC is helping to reduce social isolation and create a healthier environment.
The NBC ensures the repair and restoration of real estate and heritage properties, to the greatest extent possible, according to universal design, in order to meet the needs of every individual, regardless of age, size, or physical ability.
