Description:

The aim of this program is to provide funding to organizations that are active in the areas of international migration policy development and research and whose independent work as a third party offers a valuable contribution for consideration in Canadian international migration and citizenship policy development and implementation.

The aim in providing support to the organizations would be for Canada to promote an increase in dialogue and research activity conducted on migration issues and to encourage the exchange of information among states; to gain access to the work of these organizations, projects and activities; and to be able to influence them in terms of their programs of activity. It is anticipated that the findings and insights of these activities and organizations will contribute to the public discussion in this field in Canada, and potentially be of value in the development of Canadian policies and programs relating to international migration (including refugees), and to the assessment of immigrants and visitors, and thereby contribute to maximizing the economic and social benefits of international migration.

Application Details: Eligible projects under MPDP must be in the area of international and Intergovernmental forums, research activities and projects* regarding national and international migration of people, including refugee situations and humanitarian issues.
NOTE: All Letters of Intent and Full Applications must be processed through Research Development & Services for institutional approval. Requests for Institutional approvals should be received no less than 3 days prior to the posted Sponsor deadline. A ROLA Proposal (bearing applicant, Chair and Dean electronic approvals) is required for each submission.
