Sport Canada Research Initiative
Français
As part of the Sport Canada Research Initiative (SCRI), Sport Canada launched joint
initiatives with the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada (SSHRC) and
the Canadian Institutes for Health Research (CIHR). Sport Canada is funding these initiatives to
better evidence the benefits of, and barriers to, quality sport participation with the aim of
improving Canadian sport policy outcomes.
This year marks an exciting milestone, as our first cohort of SCRI-funded researchers is completing projects, the plenary session, for the first time, included presentations of final results.
