Grant Overview

Nova Scotia's maritime heritage is a defining feature of the province's identity, with a rich history of shipbuilding, fishing, and naval exploration. The province aims to conserve and showcase this heritage through educational programs and public outreach initiatives. The target outcomes of this funding include increased visitor engagement with maritime heritage sites, improved conservation practices, and enhanced community pride in Nova Scotia's naval history. In Nova Scotia, the maritime industry has historically been a significant contributor to the provincial economy, with many communities relying on the ocean for their livelihood. The funding supports projects that utilize innovative technologies, such as augmented reality tours, to enhance the visitor experience and promote a deeper understanding of Nova Scotia's maritime heritage. By collaborating with local museums, educational institutions, and tourism boards, the project aims to drive measurable outcomes, including a 20% increase in visitor engagement with maritime heritage sites. Nova Scotia's unique cultural context, shaped by its Mi'kmaq heritage and European settlement history, informs the development of these projects. Unlike neighboring New Brunswick, Nova Scotia's maritime heritage is characterized by a strong focus on naval history and shipbuilding. The province's infrastructure, including its ports and coastal roads, also plays a critical role in supporting the maritime industry. ## Outcomes in Nova Scotia's Maritime Sector ## The funding prioritizes projects that demonstrate a clear understanding of Nova Scotia's maritime heritage and a commitment to innovation. ## Nova Scotia's Maritime Heritage Landscape ## The province's maritime heritage is reflected in its many museums, historic sites, and cultural institutions, which attract visitors from across Canada and around the world.
