Five years of research coordination
The Canada Research Coordinating Committee (CRCC) has released its first five-year progress report. Vision to Action: 2018-23 describes the progress made in the CRCC’s seven priority areas, as well as the committee’s experiences in becoming a valuable, senior strategic forum—including during the pandemic—for both government and the research community to anticipate and address challenges and opportunities in meeting the Canadian research enterprise’s changing needs. The CRCC is mandated to advance federal research priorities and coordination of policies and programs among the three federal research funding agencies and the Canada Foundation for Innovation. The report highlights initiatives the group has overseen to date to inspire and sustain an increasingly equitable, connected and innovative research enterprise in Canada.
