FNHA’s Indigenous Climate Health Action Program (ICHAP) supports First Nations leadership in reducing climate change impacts on health.
Climate change affects physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health in many ways. Through ICHAP, communities can strengthen their climate health resilience by working together to improve the environmental, social, cultural and economic factors that affect their health and wellness.
Eligibility
WHO CAN APPLY:
Any First Nations community, Tribal Council, or not-for-profit First Nations organization located in BC may apply for funding. If you have questions on whether your organization qualifies, please reach out to environmental.health@fnha.ca. ICHAP provides funding support directly to First Nations communities/organizations, who select their own study topics (within the parameters of this guide) and their own project team members/ partners. The projects must be community-driven and focus on concerns related to climate change impacts on health and wellness.
A formal letter of support is required from the organization applying for the grant, Chief and Council, local First Nations Health Service Organization, and all other project partner organizations.
