The primary goal of the Climate Resilient Smallholders Programme would be to significantly increase smallholder’s resilience and adaptation to climate change, demonstrating Canada's leadership and commitment to sustainable development and climate justice for the poorest and most vulnerable. The objectives would be to 1) Strengthen the environmental sustainability and climate resilience of poor rural people’s economic activities; 2) Increase poor rural people’s productive capacities; and 3) Increase poor rural people’s benefits from market participation.

This project aims to support Humanitarian Outcomes’ (HO) core research and analytical functions, while enhancing the overall availability and accessibility of reliable data within the humanitarian sector. It seeks to support HO to maintain and enhance its Aid Worker Security Database and Global Database of Humanitarian Organizations. These datasets provide the humanitarian sector with a comprehensive and rigorous source of open data on aid worker violence and build an empirical evidence base for analysis on changing security environments for aid operations.

Project activities include: (1) improving the quality and accessibility of data on the safety and security of humanitarian personnel by supporting the Aid Workers Security Database and the Global Database of Humanitarian Organizations; (2) providing independent, evidence-based research for analyzing security, access, and coverage in high-risk environments; and (3) providing gender-disaggregated data for all major incidents involving aid workers to enable gender-sensitive analysis of trends in violence and risk exposure.

Ce projet vise à réduire la menace posée par la prolifération et l’utilisation illicite des armes conventionnelles dans la région Indo-Pacifique en soutenant les États dans la levée des obstacles à la universalisation et à la mise en œuvre efficace du Traité sur le commerce des armes (TCA). Ce faisant, le projet contribue à une plus grande stabilité régionale et à un renforcement de la sécurité mondiale. Les activités du projet comprennent : (1) faciliter un dialogue structuré et le réseautage régional en organisant des événements interactifs qui renforcent la confiance, favorisent l’échange d’expériences nationales et encouragent des discussions éclairées interrégionales et interinstitutionnelles sur les questions liées au TCA ; (2) élaborer et partager des produits d’information simples et fondés sur des données probantes qui répondent aux préoccupations des États n’ayant pas encore adhéré au Traité et encouragent leur engagement dans les discussions politiques connexes ; (3) fournir une assistance technique ciblée et un soutien au renforcement des capacités aux autorités nationales, aux organisations régionales et aux institutions liées au TCA afin de renforcer leur capacité à promouvoir l’universalisation et le respect du Traité. Le projet bénéficie directement aux gouvernements et aux autorités nationales de la région Indo-Pacifique responsables du contrôle des transferts d’armes, ainsi qu’aux institutions du TCA, aux organisations régionales et aux organisations de la société civile et experts travaillant sur les questions de contrôle des armes et de sécurité. Le projet profitera aux populations de la région Indo-Pacifique en contribuant à réduire les flux illicites d’armes et la violence armée, et il bénéficie également au Canada, aux Alliés de l’OTAN et aux Canadiens à l’étranger grâce à une meilleure stabilité régionale et à une réduction des risques de prolifération mondiale.

This grant represents Canada’s long-term institutional support to CGIAR. CGIAR uses these funds and other donors’ funding to achieve its mandate, which is to reduce poverty and hunger, improve human health and nutrition, and enhance ecological resilience through high-quality international agriculture research, partnership and leadership.

Project activities of CGIAR include: supporting the resilient, low-emission farms, landscapes, and aquatic resources of 38 million small-scale producers and value chain actors; development of 100 climate and sectoral policies; supporting investment of USD 15 billion; and contributing to emissions reductions or removal of 1 gigaton of CO2e by supporting equitable mitigation action at scale. This will be enabled by efforts across 5 interdependent areas of work (AoW): Prioritization and coordination of climate action; Digital advisories and climate risk management; Locally led adaptation; Low-emission transitions; and Policy and Finance.

This project aims to support Middlebury College by funding the Vienna Centre for Disarmament and Non-Proliferation to conduct workshops and seminars and publish expert reports and papers for experts and beneficiaries. It seeks to formulate evidence-based recommendations for regulators to update practices, policies, and regulatory and legal frameworks. Also, these recommendations help to scope the future of emerging technologies for their secure incorporation into the nuclear sector. The project seeks to mitigate exploitable vulnerabilities in emerging technologies and cybersecurity with implications on nuclear materials, facilities and activities.

The De Chastelain Scholarship Program is a three-year academic exchange initiative. Through close cooperation between Canada and Ireland, the program aims to advance research and policy related to peacebuilding and disarmament.

September 2025 – The changing nature of conflicts worldwide resulted in unprecedented humanitarian needs. This poses unique safety and security challenges for humanitarian organizations delivering assistance to vulnerable populations, despite international humanitarian law’s protections. Conflicts worldwide result in countless and often deliberate attacks on medical and humanitarian personnel. More than ever before, frontline humanitarian workers and non-governmental organizations require free and up-to-date information, analysis and advice. This supports informed decision-making, enables humanitarian access, and helps them serve populations most in need.

With Global Affairs Canada’s support, International non-governmental organization Safety Organisation (INSO) helps humanitarian organizations fulfill their mandates safely by providing timely information and assistance to reduce security risks. Project activities include: (1) providing 24/7 safety alerts and analysis to non-governmental organization (NGOs) operating in high-risk areas; (2) offering security briefings to NGO staff to ensure preparedness in crisis contexts; and (3) facilitating interagency coordination to improve collaboration and response in conflict zones. The project primarily benefits international non-governmental organizations (NGOs) and their staff, particularly those working in conflict zones, who rely on accurate safety information to carry out their operations and deliver aid effectively.
