Leading the conversation in federalism and intergovernmental relations in our global environment

The Institute’s core mission is to lead the conversation in federalism and intergovernmental relations in our global environment. As a Queen’s University School of Policy Studies centre for research, IIGR draws on interdisciplinary research at the forefront of political science, economics, philosophy, law, and sociology. The interdisciplinary approach provides a unique venue to explore solutions to the foremost issues and challenges facing Canada today.
