The Spur Change program, a 7-year capacity-building and knowledge-sharing initiative, provides support for Canadian SMOs in the planning, implementation and monitoring of development projects. The program is implemented by the Alberta Council for Global Cooperation in collaboration with the other provincial and regional Canadian councils. The project’s activities aim to:

• increase effectiveness of Canadian small and medium organizations(SMOs) to deliver sustainable development results in support of Canada's Feminist International Assistance Policy (FIAP) and the sustainable development goals (SDGs); 
• increase collaboration of Canadian SMOs in international development; and
• increase engagement of Canadians, particularly youth, as global citizens in support of FIAP and the SDGs.

The program is funded by Global Affairs Canada as part of the small and medium organizations for impact and innovation initiative.
