Amplifying humanities and social science researchers
The Federation gives its members platforms from which to think, speak, and engage on issues of national and international significance to the humanities and social sciences. Here are a few ways the Federation does this:
- Big Thinking series , where we bring scholars to the forefront of the national dialogue on public policy and issues of public relevance
- The Role of the Humanities and Social Sciences, through which we undertake and spotlight research that addresses today’s most pressing challenges in Canada and worldwide
- Consultations through which we connect with our members to provide input to major submissions, recommendations, or statements from the Federation including participation in pre-Federal Budget submissions, government policy consultations, and engaging directly with parliamentarians
