Welcoming students, families and individuals from all corners of the world, our region’s diversity is at the heart of our success, prosperity and growth. To ensure that all individuals find equal opportunities and are free from discrimination, the Honourable Bardish Chagger, Minister of Diversity and Inclusion and Youth, recently launched the new call for proposals for the Community Support, Multiculturalism, and Anti-Racism Initiatives (CSMARI) Program.
This program builds on Canada’s strength as a diverse and inclusive society and provides funding for projects, events and community capacity building that:
The call for proposals for the Projects and the Community Capacity Building components is open until January 12, 2021. Events component proposals are accepted on a continuous basis.

Through Canada’s Anti-Racism Strategy, the Government of Canada continues to support racialized and religious minority communities, and Indigenous Peoples through improved policies, initiatives, and practices in organizations and institutions and in society in general. As part of this strategy, additional funding was announced to supplement the existing CSMARI Program.

“Building an even more inclusive Nickel Belt – Greater Sudbury means ensuring that everyone feels like they belong. This in turn fosters an environment for economic opportunities and social inclusion which is so crucial to community growth and helps ease outmigration; issues relevant to rural Northern Ontario. I encourage all eligible organizations to apply for funding to build a brighter tomorrow for all.” – Marc G. Serré, MP Nickel Belt
