Natural Resources Canada

Objet publié

The Technical Assistance Partnership – Government of Canada project supports Natural Resources Canada (NRCan) in deploying departmental scientists, engineers and technical experts specializing in natural resource management and environmental sustainability to countries eligible for official development assistance (ODA). The project also aims to improve the well-being of the poorest, most marginalized and vulnerable populations by aligning with Canada’s Feminist International Assistance Policy (FIAP) while contributing to achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Project activities include: (1) building the capacity of national government entities responsible for natural resources; (2) raising Canadians’ awareness of international development issues, including Canada’s SDGs and FIAP, through public engagement activities; and (3) organizing technical visits to Canada. The project seeks to support around 20 technical assistance initiatives.
