b. Defence Advisory Groups

Defence Advisory Groups (DAGs) contribute to employment equity objectives and enhance diversity across both the Department of National Defence (DND) and the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF).

DAGs are made up of dedicated and passionate volunteers who set aside time from their normal duties to represent their communities and to be a strong voice for historically marginalized groups within the Defence Team.

There is a DAG for each of the designated groups identified in the Employment Equity Act: women, Indigenous people, persons with disabilities, and visible minorities.

In 2020, DND/CAF established a fifth DAG to represent Two-Spirit, lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, intersex, and additional sexually and gender-diverse identities (2SLGBTQI+) members.
