ANSER/ARES is a dynamic growing association that is organizing its thirteenth annual conference as part of the Congress of the Humanities and Social Sciences. ANSER brings together leading academic researchers, students, practitioners, consultants, policymakers and community organizations from Canada and internationally to discuss current and emergent issues, debates and challenges in the fields of civil society, social economy, and nonprofit research and practice. Join us for what promises to be an engaging and provocative conference. The theme for the thirteenth conference at Western University is Bridging Divides, a theme that aims to connect researchers with community and to support partnerships for shared knowledge exchange.
