Policy Workshops on “Governing the Social Dimension in Canadian Federalism and European Integration”

February 5, 2013 — October 31, 2013

Location:Various locations across Europe and Canada
Cost:Free of charge

The June 2013 issue of the Canadian Public Administration journal published by the Institute of Public Administration of Canada features the theme: “Governing the Social Dimension in Canadian Federalism and European Integration.” The journal will be available open-source until December 2013; access here. For a preview of the June 2013 issue, see this document.

This publication arises from research presented at the CETD-supported conference “Comparing Modes of Governance in Canada and the European Union: Social Policy Engagement across Complex Multilevel Systems” co-organized Dr. Amy Verdun and held at the University of Victoria, October 14-15, 2011.

You can also read a Commentary by Dr. Donna E. Wood on this topic entitled “Seven presentations in three European countries on my comparative governance research: what did I learn?”

A series of workshops and seminars in 2013 has presented the research of this special issue publication (see table below).

Ivan F Dumka recently presented at the European Social Observatory in Brussels, Belgium. A podcast of his address is available from the event post.
