• W13754039 abstract "Howard Duncan International Project Director Metropolis Project (CIC) Ottawa, ON K1A 1L1 The International Metropolis Project is a set of co-ordinated activities carried out by a group of countries and international organizations who share the vision of strengthened immigration policy through applied academic research. The Metropolis partnership, now comprised of twenty countries and six international organizations representing a wide range of policy and academic interests, is sustained by the attractions of its core idea. There is no budget holding the membership together. It is rather the promise of more effective policy making, more socially meaningful research practices, and the excitement of international collaboration towards common goals that bring people to the Metropolis table to turn a vision into a concrete project. The underlying idea is that the members of Metropolis will work collaboratively on issues of immigration and integration, always with the goal of strengthening policy and thereby allowing societies to better manage the challenges and opportunities that immigration presents, especially to their cities. Ideally, this work involves teams of both researchers and policy-makers. Its current broad areas of interest are: * Immigrant labour market and economic participation issues * Immigrant spatial concentration and its social and economic determinants and consequences * Immigrant mobility * Promoting societal cohesion * Cities and the nexus between integration and immigration policies The Metropolis approach to the relations between academic research and policy is to encourage joint initiatives to: * Identify and articulate issues and problems for policy and research work; * Develop appropriate data and conduct international comparative research directly related to the policy issues identified as priorities by the Metropolis partnership; * Exchange experiences amongst the partnership regarding the effects of immigration, especially within our cities, and the effects of government and non-government interventions, especially those designed to facilitate immigrant integration; and * Exchange information about effective practices where these have been identified and explained on the basis of rigorous empirical research. Metropolis encourages these joint initiatives by fostering a growing international network of researchers and policy makers, by convening events that provide opportunities for its members to hold informed discussions, to discover where potential for collaboration exists, and to plan accordingly. The Project has organized its activities on the premise that what is needed to strengthen policy through a greater role for social science is a willingness of parties on both sides to develop relationships that result in a mutual understanding of each others' institutional cultures, that result in mutual trust, that result in a desire to work together, and that result in enduring working relations. Contrary to strictly rationalist portrayals of the research-policy link, connecting the two is not primarily a matter of linking propositions or ideas. It is about linking people, some of whom have knowledge of facts, some of whom have ideas about what ought to be done and the authority to do it. Decisions do not result from an algorithmical coming together of ideas in logical space but are made in ways that are often, perhaps nearly always, epistemically messy or complex. But decisions are made and can be improved by incorporating researchers and their ideas into the decision process itself. In general, if research is to contribute most effectively to policy, the researcher must carry out work in conjunction with the policy maker. Publishing books or papers and making them available to decision makers is rarely enough, even if the material is highly relevant and written in easily digestible language. …" @default.
