$99,672.00

Agreement Date:

Sep 7, 2023 - Aug 31, 2024

Description:

This project addresses the adverse impact that some autonomous sanctions regimes have on humanitarian action. It does this by building upon previously conducted multi-stakeholder consultation exercises (governments, non-governmental organizations, private sector), examining the difficulties faced by humanitarian actors when trying to effectively deliver assistance in areas where autonomous sanctions regimes apply. Project activities include: (1) facilitating additional closed-door, multi-stakeholder dialogues to develop a model checklist and (2) designing a training on how to use the checklist, including how to identify reliable data and apply it to mitigate humanitarian impacts.

Organization:

Global Affairs Canada

Expected Results:

The expected outcomes for this project include: (1) improved policy and programming decisions on autonomous sanctions measures, particularly concerning international humanitarian action.

Peace and Stabilization Operations

Program Purpose:

The Peace and Stabilization Operations Program (PSOPs) is an integral component of the Government of Canada’s toolbox to prevent and respond to conflicts and crises abroad. It supports rapid, effective, whole-of-government coordinated responses to a wide range of challenges and serves as a valuable instrument for supporting stability in conflict-affected regions. PSOPs provides visible and concrete assistance in response to conflicts and crises abroad through targeted programming, the deployment of Canadian police officers (in partnership with Public Safety Canada and the RCMP) and civilian personnel, and direct support to the UN and multilateral peace operations, conflict prevention, mediation, and peacebuilding efforts.
