Who We Are
CFLRI is a national research agency concerned with educating Canadians about the importance of leading healthy, active lifestyles.
Established in September 1980, in recognition of the need identified by national organizations, federal and provincial governments, and Canadian universities, the Institute is the leader in bridging the gap between knowledge on physical activity and its use.
A registered not-for-profit applied research institution, CFLRI operates on funds received on an annual basis from the Fitness/Active Living Program Unit of Health Canada, from contracts and grants, and from publication sales. Its charitable number is 0740621-21-10.
The Institute is directed by a Board of Directors comprised of eminent scholars and professionals in the areas of public health, physical education, sport sciences, recreation, and medicine, as well as universities and federal and provincial levels of government.
