Partners
Academic consortium
Based at Toronto Metropolitan University, the Bridging Divides research program brings together three other academic partners: Concordia University in Montreal, the University of Alberta and the University of British Columbia.
Core partners
Bridging Divides is a national research program rooted in partnership. Researchers at four partner universities are working alongside communities in large cities and small towns, engaging with both local service providers and national institutions. Together, we are committed to work that responds to real-world needs and reflects the diverse experiences of newcomers across Canada.
