Research Impact
This project has yielded scholarly articles, an upcoming conference for scholars and practitioners, as well as numerous public speaking engagements.
The research findings of the RWL-INE have already been disseminated through a variety of outlets. They have been featured in op-ed articles written for the Toronto Star and papers have been submitted to such publications as the Canadian Labour and Law Journal, Relations Industrielles/Industrial Relations and the Journal of Law and Social Policy. Project managers have presented their findings at conferences as far away as Vienna, Austria, Bellagio, Italy and Northumbria, England.
