The Digital Strategy Fund grants are for strategic initiatives that will help Canadian artists, groups, and arts organizations understand the digital world, engage with it, and respond to the cultural and social changes it produces.
The Canada Council encourages initiatives that share the values and principles of the digital world, including:
- a focus on collaboration, partnership, and networking;
- open-mindedness and willingness to share knowledge, results, ideas, and lessons learned;
- experimentation, risk-taking, and iterative development.
Between 2017 and 2021, the Canada Council will invest $88.5M through this Fund.
