Funding

Environment Canada offers funding through various Grants and Contributions programs. These programs offer funding to eligible groups, organizations and individuals for local action projects that protect or conserve our natural environment and to create employment opportunities for young scientists and post-secondary graduates seeking hands-on training.

For more information on Environment Canada's funding programs, see Funding Programs.

Environment Canada is reforming the way it manages grants and contributions. Our commitment to reform is part of a broader effort across Government to reduce the “web of rules” around our funding practices. A key goal of this reform is to simplify, streamline and reduce the paper burden on those seeking or receiving funding.
