This project advances the Government of Canada commitment to plant an additional two billion new trees over the next 10 years as part of a broader approach to nature-based climate solutions.

The objective of this project is to enhance Indigenous participation in the natural resource economy, and support governance, and First Nation, government, and/or industry engagement.

The objective of this project is to increase capacity to prepare for and respond to wildfires.

NCGC is proposing to host an UNLEASH Canada Regional Innovation Lab, a 7-day innovation in-person conference that would bring together global talent from across the circumpolar north for events that aim to build capacity and generate innovative solutions.

Lab participants would be youth aged 18 to 35. It will benefit up to 200 Canadian youth, including 100 from the Territories and northern Canada, and 100 from Nordic countries (Sweden, Norway, Finland, Iceland and Denmark, including Faroe Islands and Greenland), for a total of 300 youth.

The UNLEASH Regional Innovation Labs are ongoing events (in average every 2 years), and the next one will take place in Canada

This project aims to strengthen the advocacy of survivors’ networks in Iraq while addressing the implementation gap of the Yazidi Survivors Law by working with the Directorate of Victims and facilitating meaningful participation of Yazidi women and girl survivors in the process. Project activities include: (1) providing training and networking support to survivor groups in Sinjar and Dohuk; and (2) providing technical assistance to state actors on how to ensure a survivor-centred approach to the law's implementation. The Global Survivors Fund implements this project.

One of the primary objectives of XRISM is to understand the gas motions of the Perseus cluster of galaxies and how these connect to the black hole feedback processes. We propose a collaboration that will bring a unique set of expertise and observations. We will build a recurrent inference machine (i.e. a type of neural network) that can successfully deconvolve the intrinsic X-ray spectrum of a source from the XRISM instrumental response function. Overall, this collaboration will significantly enhance the XRISM science case for Perseus, and more generally, galaxy clusters.

Science North will reimagine the visitor experience in Space Place to engage audiences in a series of exhibits related to Canada and the Moon, increasing young Canadians’ awareness of Canadian Space projects and interest in pursuing STEM education and careers. Exhibits will explore the Canada’s participation in the Artemis Program, as well as the work that Canadian space scientists are doing to drive next-generation technologies for space exploration, including a range of opportunities for lunar science, robotics, AI and lunar rover technology.

This project objective is to update the permanent Space exhibit to feature more current information related to Canada’s participation in present and future endeavours related to Moon exploration, such as Artemis Missions and the Lunar Gateway. In this exhibit, children will have the opportunity to learn about the process of designing and building technology such as the Canadarm3, other Gateway modules, and lunar rover components; transporting people into space and to the Moon via the Artemis Missions; and how ongoing research can be applied to the wider exploration of the galaxy. The exhibit refresh will also expand children’s interest in moon-related topics through hands-on exploration of engaging materials.
