About CURE
Formed in 2004, the Centre for Urban Research and Education was established to facilitate individual and group research and education activities in urban public policy and management. Housed in the Faculty of Public Affairs, it brings together faculty members from the:
- School of Public Policy and Administration
- Geography
- Sprott School of Business
It also incorporates existing research units, notably the Centre for Voluntary Sector Research and Development (CVSRD) and the Carleton Centre for Community Innovation (3CI).
CURE is designed as a research network that draws on the strength of existing units at Carleton University, and at the University of Ottawa.
