The roots and nature of the financial crisis may also lead to major shifts of the Canadian public about sense of community responsibility and service.<\/p>\n A \u201cCritical Conversation\u201d discussing this key issue was held on January 30th 2009 at Carleton University bringing together leaders in the nonprofit\/voluntary sector, business as well as policy makers to discuss the implications of the financial crises on the nonprofit\/voluntary sector and potential strategies and policies to deal with it.<\/p>\n Figuring out how to respond effectively cannot be done by the public, private or nonprofit\/voluntary sector alone: it will take a deeper understanding across sectors and undoubtedly coordinated and concurrent efforts. Our goal of this \u201cCritical Conversation\u201d was to bring together key players to discuss and strategize on this crucial issue.<\/p>\n This Critical Conversation was hosted by the\u00a0School of Public Policy and Administration<\/a>\u00a0of Carleton University (led by the Centre for Voluntary Sector Research and Development) and in collaboration with the\u00a0Wellesley Institute<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n Welcome and Opening Remarks<\/strong><\/p>\n Panel #1 Context – What is the Situation?<\/strong><\/p>\n Panel #2 Impact on the Sector<\/strong><\/p>\n Panel #3 Policy Responses and Strategies<\/strong><\/p>\n Training and Education Nonprofit and Voluntary Sector\u00a0 Governance & Management Course (PADM5423) PADM 5423 – Summer Course Year 2012 Please note the Professional Development component will not be offered this year, however, interested individuals may wish to look into the option of auditing the course (non-credit).
