In 2008–2009, SWC continued the process of modernizing its infrastructure and systems in order to provide senior management
with more accurate and reliable information to facilitate effective decision-making, thereby meeting accountability requirements
of the Government of Canada. Key departmental systems such as: the Network Operating software, security and suite of products,
the Free Balance financial system and the Human Resource Information System were modernized. As well, departmental financial
reporting and internal controls were improved to monitor compliance with departmental accountabilities.
As indicated in its Report on Plans and Priorities for 2008–2009, SWC enhanced its public affairs function in order to inform Canadians about its work and to respond to the increasing demand for information about gender-related subjects and government action on issues pertaining to women. As a result, in 2008–2009, SWC responded to an increased number of inquiries from the public and the media:
SWC was challenged to find innovative and effective methods to reach Canadians. This presented an ideal opportunity to rebrand and further develop SWC’s website, which had not been updated in recent years. With the goal of increasing SWC’s reach to Canadians, the new site was launched in December 2008 with the overall “common look-and-feel” theme for all Government of Canada websites.
In an effort to gain improved media coverage of Government of Canada achievements relating to women, SWC organized media events, showcasing projects that received support at local, regional and national levels. These events were publicized through media advisories and media releases. As a result, there has been increased media coverage of government activities related to gender equality.
