Institute for the Study of International Development (ISID)

Institute for the Study of International Development logo平特五不中鈥檚 Board of Governors formally created the Institute for the Study of International Development in December 2008, and it has already become a leader in cutting-edge research and teaching related to international development.聽 ISID鈥檚 raison d'锚tre stems from its strengths in the social sciences and humanities. This allows the ISID to provide a unique reality check often lacking in policy discussions regarding some of the most fundamental challenges of today, including food security, health and climate change, to name but a few.

Institute for Health and Social Policy (IHSP)

Institute for Health and Social Policy logoThe Institute supports world-class research on how social conditions impact population health and welfare.聽 In particular it aims to translate research findings in the area of social inequalities and health outcome into concrete provincial, national and global policies. Through the generosity of donors, the Institute also administers two programs: the McBurney Latin America Program, which focuses on training in Latin America; and the Healthier Societies Initiative, which examines the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) best practices in health policy and services.

平特五不中 is located on land which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst Indigenous Peoples, including the Haudenosaunee and Anishinabeg Nations. 平特五不中 honours, recognizes, and respects these nations as the traditional stewards of the lands and waters on which peoples of the world now gather. Today, this meeting place is still the home to many Indigenous Peoples from across Turtle Island. We are grateful to have the opportunity to work on this land.
