This was done in the spirit of continuous improvement and given the following developments: • The completion, in 2023, of the internal audit of the risk oversight activities for funded projects and institutions • The adoption of a new strategic plan for 2023 to 2028 • The launch, in 2021, of the Biosciences Research Infrastructure Fund • The launch, in 2024, of the Northern Fund. [...] 2.2 Funding and contribution agreements The CFI operates under two funding agreements and four contribution agreements with the Government of Canada, under the authority of Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada (ISED) and the Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry (see Appendix 1: Funding and contribution agreements with the Government of Canada). [...] The CFI advances the objectives of the Government of Canada and works alongside federal and provincial governments and in partnership with federal and provincial granting agencies and organizations to support and strengthen the research environment in Canada. [...] The CFI gathers, analyzes and reports accurate, consistent and timely information that demonstrates the need for and relevance of the CFI, its funds and the outcomes of its investments to the CFI Board of Directors, the Government of Canada and the Canadian public. [...] These evaluations include: a) an evaluation of the organization, and b) the joint evaluation (conducted by ISED, the Tri-agency Institutional Programs Secretariat and the CFI) of the partnership between the Biosciences Research Infrastructure Fund and the Canada Biomedical Research Fund.
