Description
The Forum of Federations was established in 1998 as a non-governmental organization, further to a 1997 Red Book commitment to "propose the creation of an international forum of federations, where federal countries can exchange ideas and information, compare their experiences and devise new solutions to common problems".
CIDA contributed to the Forum of Federations from their Vote 25 through the Canadian Partnership Program with the goal "to support the Forum in its activities to strengthen the capacity of counterpart organizations and government bodies in those developing countries and countries in transition for which federalism is a significant issue, so that they can contribute, nationally and internationally, to the exchange of experiences and best practices on federalism."

All payments to the Forum of Federations have been presented in the Public Accounts in Plate II-9a (except for 2000-01) under the following class of contribution that corresponds to Fund 310 and Fund 319 in CIDA's financial system.
