Grants and Contributions

Project is supportive of the SUSTAINET Guardian consortium. The project will support the development of an advanced automated design and simulation tool to improve the modeling of Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces (RIS) and antenna arrays for sustainable 6G communication systems.

The project will support the development and implementation of regional tenant rights workshops and materials in five jurisdictions and will establish regional tenant advocacy cohorts to form a national community focused on gender-responsive tenant protection. The project will formalize partnerships with legal and community organizations and convene roundtables and consultations to discuss emerging issues and make policy recommendations to municipal, provincial and federal housing authorities.

The annual contribution will ensure Canada continues to meet its financial obligations to the International Institute for the Unification of Private Law, as well as fulfilling Canada's international policy objectives.

This project will identify knowledge gaps in federal right to housing mechanisms and develop public legal education and information materials on how right to housing mechanisms can be leveraged to strengthen and protect tenants' rights. The project will produce a national summary report highlighting key points and strategies for advancing tenant protections and accessibility through mechanisms in the National Housing Strategy Act.

The project will publish the 4th French edition and the first English translation of Language Rights in Canada. This edition will provide a vital bilingual resource for practitioners and students of official language law.

The project will provide free, age-appropriate legal rights education to children and youth throughout British Columbia through interactive workshops. With a lawyer present, workshops will address legal questions and foster meaningful conversations about rights and responsibilities. The project will help bridge access to legal and other support services, with a particular focus on reaching marginalized youth, including those in rural, northern, and Indigenous communities.
