  • restoring areas into functional ecosystems that sequester and store carbon

Eligible Applicants

This intake is open to the following applicants:

  • Domestic or international not-for-profit organizations, such as charitable and volunteer organizations, professional associations, and non-governmental organizations
  • Domestic or international Indigenous organizations, governments, Individuals, boards, commissions, communities, associations, and authorities including:

  • Local organizations such as community associations and groups, senior and youth groups, and service clubs

Eligible Expenses

In addition to GHG emission reductions, the NSCSF will support projects that will provide co-benefits. Co-benefits are additional positive outcomes that would result from the project. Co-benefits include, but are not limited to:

  • Biodiversity benefits: Implementing natural climate solutions that would have a demonstrable biodiversity benefit, such as reducing the conversion of habitat for species at risk or migratory birds, or implementing management practices that would reduce threats to biodiversity, etc.
  • Contribution to area-based conservation targets: Implementing natural climate solutions that would contribute to Canada’s commitment under the new Kunming-Montreal Global Biodiversity Framework to conserve 30 percent of terrestrial lands and inland waters by 2030 (i.e. Target 3)
  • Indigenous reconciliation: Implementing natural climate solutions in a way that would have a demonstrable benefit for reconciliation with Indigenous Peoples. These benefits must be defined by implicated Indigenous Peoples
  • Human well-being: Implementing natural climate solutions that would have a demonstrable human well-being benefit such as adaptation to climate change, increased access to nature, provision of jobs, etc.
  • Support for underrepresented Canadians: Implementing natural climate solutions in a way that would support underrepresented Canadians. This could include creation of new jobs and ensuring that human well-being benefits are equitable
