QPR was established in 2009. The goal of the journal is to provide a venue for outstanding work by graduate students in the fields of public policy and governance. Past publications have covered a diverse array of topics from contributing authors at several different schools across Canada.
In order to gain a broader, more interdisciplinary perspective on policy issues, we have expanded the list of departments that receive our call for papers from 73 to over 200. Accordingly, we hope to encourage what may be considered "non-traditional" disciplines to engage with contemporary policy questions.
