Bringing together national governments, the international community, civil society, the private sector and other actors, SDG 17 targets comprise a broad range of issues, including: finance, science and technology, trade, partnerships, data, and transparency.

Canada is seeking to increase cross-sectoral collaboration domestically and abroad, including through its participation in multilateral forums and international assistance. In 2020, Canada provided $10.7 billion in Total Official Support for Sustainable Development, of which $1.7 billion supported SDG 17.
