Fund Type
The Events component of the Community Support, Multiculturalism, and Anti-Racism Initiatives Program provides funding to community-based events that promote intercultural or interfaith understanding, civic memory and pride or respect for a healthy democracy, as well as celebrations of a community’s history and culture, such as heritage months recognized by Parliament.
- Expected results are that participants and communities will gain knowledge, develop strategies and take action to increase awareness of Canada's growing diversity; increase awareness of issues affecting full participation in society and the economy, related to culture, ethnicity or religion; increase awareness of democratic institutions, systems, and legal frameworks, including the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms; and increase capacity within communities to address racism and discrimination.
