This program provides strategic capacity-building funding. Funding can be used to create new projects, enhance existing programs, or improve group operations for Indigenous-led food systems and food security initiatives that act as disruptors to known systemic barriers. Projects funded are intended to act as catalysts to generate positive change that supports Indigenous peoples’ self-determination over their food systems, and their participation in the food and agriculture sectors. Supports eligible expenses up to $200,000. Maximum amount approved will depend on project demand and impact
