Join a University of Guelph / CAIDP webinar to present and discuss findings of recent research about the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on Canadian humanitarian and development organisations.

In this webinar, panelists will discuss the findings and their implications for the future of the Canadian foreign aid sector.  Panelists will include Dr. Andrea Paras (Associate Professor, University of Guelph and the project’s Primary Investigator), Jean Lowry (President, CAIDP/University of Waterloo READI Project Director) and Dr. Rebecca Tiessen (Professor, University of Ottawa).
