Canadian Households’ Perspective

The Canadian Households’ Perspective (CHP) collects Canadian data through polling and focus groups. Through CHP, we gain an understanding of the day-to-day realities that hinder women’s professional advancement. This data allows us to provide data-centered recommendations to support greater economic prosperity for women and Canada.
