About us
The Impact and Innovation Unit (IIU) is driving a shift in the way the Government of Canada uses new policy and program tools to help address complex public policy challenges. With a focus on “the how,” the IIU works with central agencies, departments and external organizations to promote evidence-based decision making and reduce barriers to innovation inside of government. The IIU houses the Centre of Expertise for the Impact Canada Initiative which helps departments accelerate the adoption of outcomes-based funding approaches to deliver meaningful results to Canadians. The IIU team is highly skilled and interdisciplinary, with decades of combined experience in policy/program development and management, outcomes-based funding, evaluation, partnership brokering, and behavioural insights.

En mettant l’accent sur « le comment », l’UII collabore avec les organismes centraux, les ministères et les organismes externes pour promouvoir la prise de décisions fondées sur des données probantes et réduire les obstacles à l’innovation. L’UII accueille le centre d’expertise pour l’Initiative Impact Canada qui aide les ministères à accélérer l’adoption de méthodes de financement fondées sur les résultats afin de produire des résultats significatifs pour les Canadiens.

🚀 What a huge milestone for the #AqualunarChallenge! We recently wrapped up an incredible bootcamp hosted at the Canadian Space Agency | Agence spatiale canadienne in Montréal. The event brought together passionate participants to connect and collaborate as they strive to make human habitation in space possible by finding ways to purify water buried beneath the moon’s surface. The three-day agenda was packed with plenty to inspire, from dynamic workshops, energising talks from astronauts, networking sessions and more! We’re deeply grateful to the Canadian Space Agency for opening their doors and empowering such an incredible occasion. 👏 Read more: https://ow.ly/ZytY50UrGRI Impact Canada UK Space Agency #AquaLunarChallenge #SpaceTech #Innovation

The recent #AqualunarChallenge bootcamp in Montréal brought together some of the brightest minds to collaborate on advancing water purification on the moon. 🌕💧 Together, they explored groundbreaking technologies, gained insights from astronauts and built long-lasting connections. A particular highlight was the incredibly inspiring presentation from Frederic Lemaire, winner of the #DeepSpaceHealthcare challenge. Curious what it’s like for a self-proclaimed “space nut” to take part in this incredible journey?

The space community is awesome! 🤩 🚀 I was honoured to speak at the Aqualunar Challenge Bootcamp yesterday about my experience in the Deep Space Healthcare Challenge. It's one of those days when you return home with so much energy. My wife was like: "You need to calm down 😂" How can you calm down when you just met all those dreamers and watched a presentation by Farah Alibay on what it's like to drive a rover on Mars ??? 😆 UK Space Agency Canadian Space Agency | Agence spatiale canadienne #Space #SpaceSector #AqualunarChallenge

Bringing 18 innovator teams from the UK and Canada together in Montréal for the Aqualunar Challenge this week has been a huge but rewarding piece of work for the Challenge Works team. Challenge prizes are about competition - but nobody said that competition can’t be friendly and collegiate! Thanks to Canadian Space Agency | Agence spatiale canadienne for hosting, UK Space Agency for funding and to all our speakers for their support.
