Today, CIPRI (Canadian-India Project for Research and Innovation) met up with the international students at York International Global Lounge, to give a brief overview of the goals of CIPRI and how to engage in our activities. This meet and greet would not have been possible without the exemplary efforts of CIPRI student committee members Manroop Grewal and Talha Khan, who presented and guided the meet the greet. Within this meet and greet, an explicit break down of CIPRI’s focus on research initiatives between India and Canada. In addition, this outreach event was also to inform students that CIPRI is an inclusive initiative, where anyone is welcome as India and Canada are multicultural countries.

To celebrate the 68th Anniversary of Republic Day of India, the Consulate of India in Toronto held an event on January 26, 2018 at the Consulate. CIPRI Team celebrated the event along with the community members and diplomats at the Consulate. This was the Launch of the Canada-India Project for Research and Innovation (CIPRI) and the first annual Canada-India Symposium at York University, Toronto! The purpose of the Canada-India Symposium event is to discuss and bring attention to research topics ranging from Social Science Frontiers and Public Policy to Migration, Diaspora, STEM and Economic Activities between Canada and India, in the hopes of improving relations between the commonwealth nations. A huge thank you goes out to our speakers who made this symposium possible, and to the participation of our distinguished guests and to students who attended and aided with the execution of this event. Last, but not least we at CIPRI would like to give our deepest gratitude to Mr.Dinesh Bhatia, and the Consulate General of India Toronto for their continual support of this event, as well as to Professor Dawn Bazely and Dr. Nivedita Das Kundu for planning this first of its kind symposium.
