Document Summary

Joanna simpson, supplement 3, intersectionality wheel diagram (h&r, p. 44) This 2015 article discusses the theoretical and analytical intersectionality approach, focusing on its application to an analysis of empirical data obtained from qualitative research into domestic violence against aboriginal women living in four remote communities in quebec. Compensation act; and eliminate tax policies that exacerbate women"s economic insecurity and reduce women"s labour force participation. All these social systems increase the vulnerability of aboriginal women to domestic violence. This paper is one of the few scholarly attempts made so far to apply intersectional analysis to empirical data on the phenomenon of domestic violence as experienced by aboriginal women. This chapter provides an overview of cultural competence and context in evaluation. The chapter discusses the cultural contexts of policymaking, program development, and service delivery including culture in problem definition and program theory; culture in policy discourse and decisions; and cultural competence in policy and program development.
