Policy Insights Forum Strategic Thinkers Series

In May 2025, CPYC President Eva Cohen joined the Policy Insights Forum’s Strategic Thinkers Series to discuss the benefits of a Canadian Civilian Disaster Response, and the incredible potential for youth to leading this much needed change to our outdated response system.

The Policy Insights Forum (PIF) is a non-partisan Canadian Think Tank focusing on strategic over-the-horizon public policy issues through independent research, analysis and engagement.

“The Policy Insights Forum hosts the Strategic Thinkers Series where we dive deep into discussions with forward-thinking authors, leaders, and academics to discuss future strategic policy implications for Canada, its Allies, and Partners. Our unique platform brings together the Public, and Private Sectors, NGOs, and Academia.”

It was a great honour to have been invited to share our topic, explain civil protection and highlight the potential of this opportunity to increase our resilience.
