Funding Available for Cultural Awareness and Inclusion Initiatives

The Government of Alberta is accepting applications for a new grant program designed to build greater cultural awareness and more inclusive communities. The Multiculturalism, Indigenous and Inclusion Grant revitalizes the Anti-Racism Community Grant to support a broader range of projects. Projects will focus on promoting cross-cultural understanding, celebrating diverse backgrounds and helping Albertans understand the impacts of discrimination.

The maximum funding amount per project is $25,000 on a matching basis. Non-profits can apply to either the multiculturalism and inclusion projects stream or the Indigenous projects stream. Projects can be stand-alone initiatives, new programming or resources for training and education, capacity building or enhancing cultural awareness.

The first intake of the Multiculturalism, Indigenous and Inclusion Grant closes January 7, 2020.
