Country Report
Canadian funding for ECP had been cut in many of its fields until 2015. Since then, the role of cultural diplomacy within Canadian foreign policy has grown in importance as new funding was provided and new positions were created. Special foci have been on the export of cultural goods, the mobility of Canadian artists and the internationalization of Canadian higher education. While a coherent cultural diplomacy strategy and concerted approach is still lacking, Canada already possesses strong bilateral partnerships and domestic institutions.
