Complaint Handling Policy

The Canadian Wildlife Federation (“CWF”) expects staff at all levels to be committed to fair, effective and efficient complaint handling.

CWF Grant Overhead Policy

The mission of the Canadian Wildlife Federation is to conserve and inspire the conservation of Canada’s wildlife and habitats for the use and enjoyment of all. CWF generates the funds for its granting programs through the generosity of its donors. As such, CWF issues grants with the expectation that all of the funds will be directed towards the research and conservation initiatives supported with little or no overhead costs. Any agreed upon overhead must be reasonable and justifiable and the maximum overhead is 10%.

Indigenous Land Acknowledgement

The Canadian Wildlife Federation would like to acknowledge that the land on which our main office is located is the traditional unceded territory of the Algonquin Anishnaabeg People. The Algonquin peoples have lived on this land since time immemorial. We are grateful to have the opportunity to be present in this territory. CWF honours all First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples and their valuable past and present contributions to this land.

Policy Against Racism and Discrimination in Conservation

The Canadian Wildlife Federation’s conservation work is enhanced by the diverse identities, experiences and abilities of its people and partners. CWF is committed to working towards lasting and meaningful change that will make our organization more diverse, equitable and inclusive. CWF has taken action over many years and continues to build on this through a comprehensive approach that includes working with all staff to learn from their experiences, ensuring current policies are up-to-date, providing anti-racism and diversity training for all staff and working with external experts, when needed, to continue to improve our practices and progress.
