International Work
 
Taking advantage of our solid foundation in domestic policy, our global perspective on social, economic, environmental and general governance issues, and our experience with international agreements and cooperative ventures, we offer specialized internationally-focused policy services in three areas: research and analysis of comparative international approaches; facilitation of Canadian positions on international policy and program initiatives; and preparation of briefs for international clients on Canada’s domestic and international policies.
 
Our clients in the international policy sphere consist of: Canadian-based organizations in the government, private and voluntary sectors pursuing international objectives; foreign-based parties interested in Canadian perspectives and experiences; and international multilateral organizations working with Canadian authorities on common issues and initiatives. 

 
Some selected examples:

  • Strategic planning support for a Canadian-based NGO concerned with international health issues
