CERIS promotes innovative policy-relevant research on immigration, settlement and integration. One way to fulfil this mandate is through our annual Request for Proposals (RFP) research competition. RFPs support researchers across Ontario to conduct collaborative, interdisciplinary research that informs current immigration policy and practice. Since 1996, CERIS has funded over 120 research projects covering a wide range of issues. The findings of many of these projects have been disseminated through CERIS seminars and publications.

CERIS also serves the field by providing a space for related work. Below are some publications relevant to our community of researchers, policy-makers and community organisation members.
