Data for Democracy with Tony Labillois (Director General, Statistics Canada) in conversation with Jamie Ward (MUN Harris Centre)
Students, faculty, and members of the community are inivited to join us at the Signal Hill Campus for the first event of the Public Policy Dialgoue series, co-sponsored by the MUN Harris Centre and the Department of Political Science's Law and Public Policy program. The series is intended to provide insights and networking oppurtunties for those interested in pursuing a career of public service, broadly construed.
The first event, "Data for Democracy", will see Tony Labilllois (Director General, Justice, Diversity, and Population Statistics Branch) in conversation with the MUN Harris Centre's Jamie Ward. Over the course of his 30 career in the Canadian public service, Tony has acquired a vast experience in leadership, in sound management of programs, projects, budgets and human resources. He also gained knowledge by developing and implementing simple and effective tools in communication, negotiation and outreach and for evaluating activities. Tony is also the executive Champion for Persons with Disabilities. He is well positioned to understand statistical needs and help facilitate and grow partnerships related to disaggregated data.
Light food and beverages will be provided and a free shuttle is available for students travelling from the St. John's Main campus (contact Cathy Newhook for more details at cathyn@mun.ca).
