The EHC is currently recruiting for an Interim Grants Coordinator to maintain our vibrant Heritage Community Investment Program (HCIP) during a maternity leave. The Grants Coordinator oversees the day-to-day administration of HCIP. This role serves at the intersection of: EHC’s programs; Edmonton’s diverse communities and neighbourhoods; and our relationships with individual practitioners, volunteers, and organizations. Learn more through the online or PDF posting and apply by April 19.

It would be an understatement to say that the world has changed considerably in the year since EHC hosted the symposium Reconciliation and Resurgence: Heritage Practice in Post-TRC Edmonton on March 3-4, 2020. Read our recent blog post for a look at how this symposium has continued to inform our thinking and programming, including the introduction of a new Indigenous Initiatives program. We have recently launched the new FIRE (Funding Indigenous Resurgence in Edmonton) initiative as a direct result of learnings from this symposium, as well as the new monthly e-newsletter The Beacon.

Applications are currently open for the HCIP (Heritage Community Investment Program) streams Research & Planning and Project Accelerator (deadlines: June 4) as well as Change Capital and Career Development (open throughout 2021 via rolling intake). Learn about some of the heritage work we’re helping fund in this new announcement.
