Northern Public Affairs was founded in 2011 to provide space for informed policy discussion in and about the Canadian North. We are the only independent, volunteer-run, not-for-profit organization dedicated to mobilizing diverse voices from across the North to analyze and comment on pressing public concerns.
We do this through our regular online and print publishing activities, and the strong connections we have developed with Northern community members, Northern and southern research institutions, Indigenous organizations, policy-makers, journalists, and not-for-profit organizations who support our mandate and contribute to our goal of advancing meaningful public dialogue on the unique challenges facing Northern populations.
