You will need to log into the online grant management and follow-up system (GSS) and follow the steps.

Steps

You will need the following documents:

  • Declaration for the current year to the Registraire des entreprises du Québec
  • Your organization’s latest annual activity report and audited financial statements
  • Liability insurance policy

2 - Choose a call for projects

You must identify the call for projects you are responding to. It may be open or invitational. Make sure that the call for projects has not expired.

3 - Document the project

Provide the following detailed information about your project:

  • Project summary
  • Impacts, outcomes and activities
  • Location of the project
  • Priority actions
  • Target populations
  • Gender-based analysis (GBA+)

  • Detailed project budget
  • Any other relevant documents, including letters of support from project partners
  • Resolution of your board designating the person authorized to sign the agreement
  • Report on the previous edition of the project, if applicable

5 - Track the analysis of the application

During the analysis of your project, additional documents or information may be requested. If necessary, you will receive an email inviting you to answer the questions in the form.
