Saskatchewan Council For International Cooperation

The Saskatchewan Council for International Cooperation (SCIC) is an umbrella organization that represents a diverse range of international development organizations. SCIC administers the Saskatchewan Matching Grants in Aid Program which matches private fundraising in Saskatchewan with money from both the provincial and federal governments. This program has provided more than $350 million in support of 2,000 development projects in over 100 countries over the past 35 years. SCIC also undertakes development education and public engagement programming around international issues with funding from the Canadian International Development Agency. The WorldBeat global education school program, the SCIC Youth Program, the Earthbeat Newsletter, and ongoing capacity building events are examples of how SCIC engages Saskatchewan people on global justice issues. Global Poverty is a major global issue to Saskatchewan people, and SCIC is proud of the work our member agencies do to make the world more just.
