On April 9th the YCPPL hosted the annual student conference Exploring Cultural Policy in an Era of Globalization. Over the course of the day students presented research papers which explored the various ways in which cultural policy impacts national identity and cultural citizenship, the representation and heritage of First Nations People, labour markets and "creative workers", and urban planning and development.
Congratulations to all those who participated!
This event was generously supported by the Department of Communication Studies, McLaughlin College and the Canadian Form on Civil Justice.
