What's New in the Atlantic Hub?

What is PhiLab?

PhiLab is the Canadian Philanthropy Partnership Research Network. Funded as a SSHRC Partnership Development project, PhiLab is a space for partnership-oriented research, as well as knowledge sharing and mobilization on philanthropy and more specifically, Canadian foundations.

PhiLab is dedicated to the facilitation of research, information exchange and mobilization within Canadian foundations with a keen interest in social and environmental justice issues. It is structured with several “hubs” that are both geographically and thematically specific.

The focus of the Atlantic PhiLab hub is on further enhancing the capacity of philanthropic organizations, the communities within which they are embedded, and research focused on these relationships to build collaborative understandings specific to the Atlantic region. The four main activities of the Hub are: 1. Research; 2. Knowledge Sharing; 3. Student Training; 4. Network Building

The PhiLab Atlantic Hub is comprised of research members and students based at universities across Atlantic Canada and is partnered with various philanthropic organizations in the region.

Dr. Kelly Vodden is the Director of the Atlantic Hub and Dr. Emily Doyle is the coordinator.
