On May 9, Max Bell Foundation hosted a Partner Network Event at McGill Faculty Club and Conference Centre in Montreal, gathering its current partners and grantees over a full day of professional development that included presentations from experts in business and academia, as well as small group discussions about a range of topics spanning public policy advocacy, from multi-sector collaboration to mobilizing evidence and research and tackling polarization. The convening also provided networking opportunities for individuals working on similar public policy initiatives in the areas of health and wellness, education, and environment.
