Research is decentralized in the Department of Canadian Heritage. This document was developed by the Policy Research Group (PRG) whose mandate is to provide coordination and support to Sectors and Branches in the area of research, and optimize the dissemination and use of data and statistics within the Department. It is important to note that this list includes planned projects for 2018-2019 and is subject to change as priorities evolve. Canadian Heritage is committed to sharing its internal research products as a commitment to open research, one of the pillars of its Open Government Strategy.
