Across Canada and around the globe, cities are taking action on climate change. The next ten years is pivotal for society to scale up transformative solutions to the challenges that climate change will bring to our landscapes and our communities. Cities cannot do it alone. All levels of government, and all sectors have a role to play in creating a sustainable future.

We are now accepting applications for our Major Projects grant program from March 2 to March 31, 2020. This is a two-stage process that begins with submitting a Letter of Intent through our Application Portal below.
NOTE: You may notice the application portal looks a bit different than in previous years. This is because we have recently moved to new Grantmaking software. As a result of this move you will need to create a new profile even if you have applied for an Alberta Ecotrust grant before.
