grant Background

About the Funding Agency

Global Affairs Canada (GAC) is the federal department responsible for managing Canada's diplomatic and consular relations, international trade, and foreign aid. Headquartered at the Lester B. Pearson Building at 125 Sussex Drive in Ottawa, Ontario, the main office acts as the core command center for shaping Canadian foreign policy. The headquarters team coordinates nationwide and global strategies, supporting the Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Minister of International Trade, and the Minister of International Development.

The main office in Ottawa directs a vast network of over 175 missions, embassies, and high commissions spread across the globe. Policy makers and analysts at this central site design programs for global peace, human rights, and international law. They also manage the Trade Commissioner Service to help Canadian companies export goods and find new economic opportunities overseas.

Additionally, the headquarters hosts the 24/7 Emergency Watch and Response Centre, which assists citizens facing crises abroad. Leadership teams inside the building work with international partners to deliver humanitarian aid and fund sustainable poverty-reduction projects. Through these coordinated domestic and international efforts, the headquarters ensures Canada's values remain active in a changing world.

Locations

Marshall Islands

The Republic of the Marshall Islands is a freely associated state with the United States, with economic activity heavily supported by U.S. Compact funding, fisheries and public administration. Geographic dispersion across atolls increases infrastructure and service delivery costs, while climate change and sea-level rise pose long-term existential risks. Recent development efforts focus on renewable energy, port and water infrastructure upgrades and fiscal reform. Sustaining economic stability will depend on continued Compact arrangements, strengthened public financial management and investments that enhance climate resilience and human capital development.

Micronesia

The Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) is a small island developing state in free association with the United States. Its economy relies heavily on public sector activity, fisheries revenues and financial assistance under the Compact of Free Association. Geographic dispersion across hundreds of islands raises infrastructure and service delivery costs. Recent development priorities include strengthening climate resilience, upgrading maritime and energy infrastructure, and improving public financial management. Sustained growth will depend on effective implementation of Compact funding, expanded private sector participation, and enhanced governance capacity to address vulnerability to climate change and external shocks.
