Council of Canadian Academies

The Council of Canadian Academies is an independent, not-for-profit corporation that began operation in 2005.

The Council supports independent, science-based, expert assessments (studies) that inform public policy development in Canada.

Assessments are conducted by independent, multidisciplinary panels (groups) of experts from across Canada and abroad. The Council's blue-ribbon panels serve free of charge and many are Fellows of the Council's Member Academies. [more...]

The Council's completed assessments are published and made available to the public free of charge in English and French. Download our latest reports:
