Matching Grant Program / Canadian Embassy

Website: www.canadianembassy.org/education/grantguide-en.asp

The Government of Canada, through the Canadian Embassy, Washington, D.C., in cooperation with Canadian Consulates General throughout the U.S., at its discretion, may provide a matching grant to support Canadian Studies Programs and projects which have been funded by a major foundation or other funding institution. It is usually a partial match of a larger award (e.g., 1 for 4 ratio) provided for a specific project, such as the establishment of an endowed chair for Canadian Studies.

Accredited U.S. four year colleges and universities and research institutes that demonstrate a serious interest in Canada, Canada/U.S. or Canada/North America, are eligible. The institution must estimate the longevity of the program or project after Canadian government support is exhausted. No specific deadline applies.

For further information, please write or call the Academic Relations Office, Canadian Embassy, 501 Pennsylvania Ave., N.W., Washington, D.C. 20001, (202) 682-7727.
