Do you have any examples to share of adopted public policies that were inspired by a public policy implemented in a jurisdiction other than your own? Were you involved in any way in the policy adoption process? Would you like to share your experience?

Showcasing your work

In connection with our recent document What Factors Can Public Health Actors Consider to Facilitate the Borrowing of a Public Policy? the NCCHPP is looking for concrete examples of public policy borrowing. We can offer you a platform to share your experience, whether through a webinar on the subject or in a case study published on our website. Take advantage of this opportunity to raise the profile of your work and inspire your colleagues across Canada and beyond!

Do not hesitate to contact Ludwine Tchatat if you have any questions. The French-language version of the questionnaire is available here.

Please complete this questionnaire by no later than September 15, 2024.

Thank you in advance. We look forward to hearing from you!

1. Describe the policy as adopted in the initiating jurisdiction.

Points of interest to consider: What issues did the policy address, who were the partners involved, what was the context, what were the results of the policy in the initiating jurisdiction, etc.?

2. Describe the policy adopted in your jurisdiction that was inspired by the one described in question 1.

Points of interest to consider: What was the context in your jurisdiction at the time of the borrowing, what issues was the policy designed to address, and what results did it achieve?

3. What do you think facilitated the borrowing of this policy?

Point of interest to consider: Are there any factors that were decisive or that played a role in the process (you can consult our list of factors influencing policy importation here).

4. To what degrees was the policy adopted in your jurisdiction inspired by that of the initiating jurisdiction?

Point of interest to consider: When it comes to policy transfer, there are 4 degrees of transfer. You can consult the degrees as presented in the context to answer this question. To find out more about the degrees, you can also consult our report.

5. Do you have any advice to share with professionals who would consider including a policy from elsewhere as a policy option to propose to decision makers, or who would consider advocating for the adoption of such a policy? If there is a website describing the initiative, please share the link. If your story is selected and if you wish us to do so, we could refer to this website (in its original language) on the NCCHPP website, next to your testimonial.
