Global Affairs Canada releases guidance on eligibility of COVID-19 potential costs

Global Affairs Canada recognizes the impacts of coronavirus disease (COVID-19) on the delivery of international development assistance projects.

The following detailed guidance is meant to ensure that there are no contractual or financial barriers to prevent you from repatriating employees (and their dependants), volunteers, interns and students to their home country and following government directions on mandatory self-isolation.

The following table also provides flexibility and guidance on the eligibility of costs for other situations that could be encountered due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This guidance applies only to contribution agreements under the International Development Assistance Program and will be updated as the crisis unfolds.
