If you have wondered about these questions and would like to know more, come join us for the iPolicy for Young Leaders program.
iPolicy is a two-day in-person introductory certificate course, that introduces students and young professionals to a liberal approach to public policy. We aim to provide a first look at public policy, with expert interaction, and an opportunity to network with the Centre for Civil Society’s alumni base of over 11,000 students and young professionals.
Engage with a diverse cohort across the board over two days packed with hands-on learning. iPolicy has a host of guest lectures, group discussions, thought experiments, and policy games to provide you with a holistic understanding of public policy.
