Hi Smita,

I would be interested in seeing the environmental scan but I don't appear to have access to the file - I get the message: "You do not have access to view that content".

Thanks,
Paul

Hello All,

In June 4th Health Terminology community call, we provided you an update on HL7 International and the Gender Harmony project. This project is trying to determine all different ways that sex and gender are identified.

We have been doing an environmental scan across Canada of the use of sex and gender by province/territory and nationally. This scan is based on all the public information currently available. Below is the initial draft of the scan for your review and feedback.
