Infrastructure Service
Who Can Register?
1. Local Governments and Communities
Indigenous Governing Bodies, First Nation, Inuit or Metis government or authorities, and local governments from across Canada with populations of under or around 30, 000 inhabitants are eligible for this service. If you represent a local government or community, you can register a public infrastructure project at any stage of development to receive free expert support.
This service provides practical, hands-on options to build climate resilience and low carbon emission considerations into your project.
2. Climate and Infrastructure Experts
Do you have experience in climate adaptation or mitigation? The CRIS can match your expertise with local government projects that need support in integrating climate resilience into their infrastructure planning.
We're currently seeking experts in wildfire resilient infrastructure, green infrastructure, energy efficient solutions, and more. Find the full call for experts and eligibility below.
Deadline: June 30th, 2025
Evaluation
The matching process for municipalities will focus on key areas of expertise, roster standing, and consideration for comparable projects completed in the region or a similar region. The matching process is designed to support cross-pollination, capacity building, and provide the best quality of expertise to local governments while accounting for potential contractual obligations through master agreements with roster expert firms.
