Overview of ESPG
Our Laboratory
Our laboratory is situated in the Department of Geography at the University of Ottawa. The Environment, Society and Policy Group is provided with quality office space that is conducive of a relaxed work environment. The Lab is also equipped with modern computers, software and devices to facilitate and aid in our researchers’ work.
Our Funders & Partners
ESPG has a network of partners in the federal, territorial and local government agencies, as well as with private sector stakeholders and non-governmental or community organizations. Through collaboration with these partners we are able to generate practical recommendations and have a more direct influence on policy and practice. The value and strength of our research is directly tied to these partnerships and collaborations as they ensure we link strong academic rigour to pragmatic and relevant issues.
