4: Partnerships
Make partnerships with other organizations a key element in the Council’s approach to advancing its mandate. Other Information:
Wherever possible, the Council will use partnerships with other organizations, including other funders, as an effective and
economical alternative to expanding its own staff and programs. It will reinforce its excellent partnership with the provincial
and territorial arts funders, and it will work with its federal colleagues to improve the delivery of programs for the arts.
Partnerships will be helpful in areas where the Council has a deep interest but neither the mandate nor the resources to deliver
direct programs, and they may offer new opportunities for the arts and the public’s experience of the arts. The Council will
also use partnerships in an effort to reach out across the country, and it will maintain links with its counterparts around
the world to ensure it has access to new ideas and best practices internationally. Partnerships will help ensure that the
Council’s impact exceeds its resources; they will also broaden the Council’s horizons, its ability to view others as natural
partners in advancing the shared mission of providing opportunities for Canadians to express themselves creatively and for
people to experience their art.
