P2P 2014 conference
Day 1: Session 1
Regionalization and Immigration to Communities Outside of Metropolises
Chairs: Michèle Vatz-Laaroussi, Sherbrooke University, and Michael Haan, University of New Brunswick
Regionalization policies for immigration have been present in Quebec for almost 20 years and have more recently been promoted throughout Canada. What can we learn from past experiences and the research to date? This session discusses efforts to promote the socio-economic integration and social participation of immigrants and refugees outside the major centres in Canada, and research on the effectiveness of relevant policies and strategies.
