The 12th biennial Canadian Social Welfare Policy Conference was held in Fredericton, New Brunswick from June 16th to June 18th, 2005.
This was an opportunity for scholars, analysts, policy makers and activists to share ideas about building equitable communities.
The bilingual forum was a diverse mix of the practical, the theoretical. It highlighted what works, what doesn't work and what could work. Participants came away with new information and ideas about how theories can be turned into responsive policies and programs.
The conference featured a mixture of keynotes, plenaries, workshops and roundtables to maximize opportunity for presentation and discussion. Most sessions were held at the Wu Conference Centre at the Fredericton campus of the University of New Brunswick in the stimulating context of this bilingual and bicultural province
