    Welcome to the National Stakeholders Identification Thread for Canada!
    This thread identifies and maps critical stakeholders across sectors to support climate action, disaster risk reduction (DRR), biodiversity conservation, and sustainable development efforts in Canada. We aim to engage relevant actors to mobilize climate finance and strengthen partnerships for the Global Risks Forum 2025 and other global frameworks, including the Santiago Network for Loss and Damage.

    How You Can Contribute: Identify Stakeholders Across the Quintuple Helix Framework

    Academia and Research: Universities, think tanks, and research institutions in Canada that focus on sustainability, climate policy, DRR, and biodiversity.
    Example: Universities studying Arctic ecosystems, climate adaptation, or renewable energy technologies.

    Industry and Business: Corporations, startups, and financial institutions involved in renewable energy, green technologies, and climate finance.
    Example: Clean tech companies, investment firms focusing on sustainable projects, and energy utilities transitioning to renewables.

    Civil Society and NGOs: Non-profits, advocacy groups, and community organizations working on conservation, disaster risk reduction, and sustainable development.
    Example: Local environmental advocacy groups, indigenous community organizations focused on land stewardship, and NGOs promoting sustainable agriculture.

    Government and Public Sector: Federal, provincial, and municipal agencies involved in climate policy, environmental regulations, and disaster management.
    Example: Environment and Climate Change Canada, provincial ministries of natural resources, and municipal offices for emergency management.
