Goals
The Network will seek to:
- Foster Results-Based Innovation at ISC by providing a space for employees and partners to identify and prioritize opportunities for results-based innovation
- Keep discussions around results-based innovation lively by providing a space to share best practices
- Provide sectors with non-HR, non-budgetary resources (i.e., mentorship, engagement with partners, etc.) to realize innovative projects in their works
- Educate members on what results-based innovation means in the Indigenous Services context

New and innovative approaches may include, but are not limited to, tools and methods such as:
- User-centered design
- Behavioral insights
- Open policy-making, including co-creation approaches to develop policy, programs, and services with stakeholders, civil society, citizens, and other governments;
- Staged funding approaches to enable scaling
- Outcomes-based and pay-for-performance funding, including social and development finance and Social Impact Bond-like instruments
- Gamification
- Data analytics and modelling
- Investing in pooled funds that use these tools and methods
The Strategic Partnership Fund
The Strategic Partnership Fund (SPF) allows the Strategic Policy and Partnership Sector (SPPS) to advance the transfer of services to Indigenous-led organizations, and support Indigenous policy and evaluation capacities. The fund’s approach is intended to enable an expansion of partnerships, bring new voices to the table beyond traditional actors, and support innovation and capacity-building across the Indigenous public sector. SPF will strengthen ISC’s role in supporting the Department’s legislated priority to implement the gradual transfer of departmental responsibilities to Indigenous organizations.
The fund’s outcomes are different from other ISC policy programs because, unlike the other programs, this fund’s focus is to work with Indigenous partners to change ISC’s service delivery, internal policies, and begin to devolve services to those recipients. Other programs primarily focus on policy capacity of Indigenous partners for their own ends or for supporting ISC lead policy initiatives.
Project funding is intended for opportunities that support a path towards substantive equality for Indigenous peoples, the advancement of service delivery transfer, and support for Indigenous-led evaluation functions, while respecting the distinct needs of First Nations, Inuit, and Métis. SPF seeks projects that support cross-cutting initiatives that can benefit more than one program, region or activity, integrate co-development initiatives (Indigenous world view/knowledge) in policy and evaluation, and support innovation and capacity building across the Indigenous public sector.
Fund Objectives and Outcomes | ||

Funding | Objective Result | Outcome |
Partnership and Innovation | Partnerships and Innovations funding, as a part of the SPP fund, will be allocated to support horizontal and cross-linked projects in partnership with Indigenous partners. | PID funding will be used to advance the transfer of services to Indigenous-led organizations, and support Indigenous policy and evaluation capacities. |
Design
The Network is co-chaired by:
1. The Associate Deputy Minister
2. The Assistant Deputy Minister of the Strategic Policy and Partnerships Sector
Membership consists of representatives of:
1. All sectors at Indigenous Services Canada
2. Regions
3. Indigenous partners
4. Interested employees
Indigenous Services Canada Employees
Each Sector at Indigenous Services Canada must identify a representative at the management level for distributing information from the Network to their Sector. The employee will be responsible for distributing information from the Network to their Sector. Other employees of all levels are also encouraged to attend.
Representation - With Gender Based Analysis + in mind, the Network will strive to have inclusive membership.
Meetings - Meetings will occur quarterly or bi-monthly
Membership Expectations
Network members are expected to:
· Provide advice and feedback on areas for results-based innovation and specific results-based innovation projects
· Request practical assistance on results-based innovation projects within their branch (e.g. support for designing projects, monitoring projects, etc.)
· Participate in creating learnings, best practices, and development of educational activities for Indigenous Services Canada in the results-based innovation space
· Share and distribute information shared at the Network meetings to their respective sectors.
