The Centre for Global Social Policy is located within the University of Toronto’s Department of Sociology. The Centre supports social policy-relevant research conducted in Sociology and related disciplines.
The researchers affiliated with The Centre for Global Social Policy conduct research that touches social policy issues of importance in Canada and around the world.
Many of the researchers conduct internationally-comparative research; others focus on specific national or regional case studies. The projects are often multi-scalar: they connect local, regional, national and international perspectives.
