All applicants to the Collective Initiatives program must include a Diversity and Inclusion Plan along with their application. Applicants will be asked to describe their methods and plans to ensure their programs and operations reflect the diversity of the music sector and geographic region in which they operate with specific focus on gender, and the representation and engagement of Indigenous people of Canada, people of colour, people with disabilities, and LGBTQ2 communities.
See the Collective Initiatives program guidelines for further information on the application requirements.
