Deadline for Natural Infrastructure Fund: Small Projects Stream Applications

Infrastructure Canada’s Natural Infrastructure Fund (NIF) Small Projects Stream opened on July 14, 2022, and is accepting applications until September 27, 2022 at 3:00 pm (EDT).

The NIF is the first federal program focused on natural infrastructure. Its objectives are to build community awareness of the value and opportunities of natural and hybrid infrastructure, and to increase its uptake and use across Canada.

Natural and hybrid infrastructure deliver the same benefits as conventional infrastructure, using both natural and other materials to provide ecosystem services. Examples include naturalized stormwater ponds, living dykes, wetlands, green roofs, rain gardens, bioswales, and many others.
