Organization/ Author: Institute On Governance
Description:
The Institute On Governance, in partnership with the Office of the Federal Interlocutor for Métis and Non-Status Indians, is organizing a research initiative on Aboriginal Policy, with a particular focus on issues affecting Métis, non-status Indians, and Aboriginal people residing off-reserve. Areas of interest include:
-
Demographic trends and shifts and their implications for public policy
-
Governance and administration
-
Economic and community development
-
Social policy
-
Environmental policy
The goal of this initiative is to encourage the development and dissemination of useful, high quality, policy relevant papers, and to promote dialogue and discussions among researchers and stakeholders. It involves two main elements: a Policy Research Paper Series, and reportage on events and findings (website accessed July 14th, 2010: http://iog.ca/en/knowledge-areas/aboriginal-governance/aboriginal-policy-research-initiative).
