Public Policy at the Munk School of Global Affairs and Public Policy | University of Toronto

Check out these Globe and Mail op-eds on the continued relevance of our institutions. These articles are part of a Globe and Mail series on the role of Canadian institutions in partnership with The Walter Gordon Symposium – a two-day public policy conference co-hosted by the University of Toronto’s School of Public Policy and Governance and Massey College.

First, students Maripier Isabelle and Emily Macrae argue that “For millennial buy-in, our institutions have to connect.”

Second, Stephen Toope, Director of the Munk School of Global Affairs, argues that “We can’t afford a postinstitutional society.”

This year’s symposium, titled Confronting Complexity: Better Ways Of Addressing Our Toughest Policy Problems, will explore how the media, private sector, governments, and supranational organizations factor into the policymaking process in our increasingly complex and changing society.
