Centre for Cultural Renewal

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Centre for Cultural Renewal is a non-partisan Canadian think-tank focused on the relevance of religion within society. It was founded in 1994.[1]

Originally named the Centre for Renewal in Public Policy,[1] the foundation is based in Ottawa, Ontario, and supported by a number of notable Canadian scholars and practitioners in medicine, law, education and politics.[2]

The Centre, which is non-denominational, has often been cited by Parliamentary Committees and, on occasion, by the courts[citation needed].

It has co-sponsored conferences with Simon Fraser University, the University of British Columbia and the Faculty of Religious Studies at McGill University

In 2010, the Centre was incorporated into Cardus,[3] a public policy think tank based in Hamilton, Ontario.
