Abstract

This report presents the thematic views and key findings that emerged from the dedicated victim- survivor consultation. Mirroring other stages of the consultation process, this Report is forward facing. Our interviews with victim-survivor advocates were not focused on reviewing the previous National Plan or reflecting on the strengths and limits of the work plan that has derived from it. Rather, our questions were focused on building a clear understanding of what is needed under the term of the next National Plan from the viewpoint of victim-survivor advocates. In writing this Report, we have committed to privileging the voices of the 80 victim-survivor advocates who participated in this stage of the consultation and shared their expertise.
