An academic symposium, Shifting Gears: The Future of Public Services in an Age of Fiscal Restraint was held in November 2011 and co-hosted by the Mowat Centre and York University’s Centre for Global Challenges. The Mowat Shifting Gears series of research papers focuses on how governments can improve their ability to deliver high-quality public services, even in times of fiscal constraint. Two new research papers in the series were released in November 2011.
This event brought together researchers, thought leaders, practitioners, and decision-makers from Canada, the US and the United Kingdom to examine lessons and highlight successful examples of transformation from across the globe that are relevant for Canadian governments.
