Tri-Council agencies
The Tri-Council agencies in Canada refer to three major funding bodies that support research and development: the Canadian Institutes of Health Research (CIHR), the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council (NSERC), and the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council (SSHRC). These organizations finance research across various disciplines, promoting innovation and knowledge creation. They play a crucial role in advancing Canada's scientific and academic landscape by providing grants and funding opportunities for researchers, institutions, and projects that contribute to the country's development and public well-being.
