The establishment of internal and external partnerships is the privileged method of the Centre on Governance for the exploration, production and dissemination of knowledge, in a fundamental or applied research perspective.
Internally, the Centre on Governance is part of the School of Political Studies, which brings together university programs in public administration and political science at the University of Ottawa. The Centre draws a large part of its members from the pool of professors and students working within the School.
