The Laurier Institute for the Study of Public Opinion and Policy is a research center at Wilfrid Laurier University which studies issues pertaining to the creation, use and representation of public opinion in the policy process. The Institute serves as a catalyst to promote individual and collaborative research on these issues. In addition, the Institute monitors the practices and claims of the public opinion and interest group industries, and serves as an educational resource to the University and the larger community on questions and issues pertaining to those claims and practices.
LISPOP is hosting a forum on intergenerational inequality, which will bring policy experts together to discuss the issue of housing. This event will take place on February 20, 2025 in the Senate and Board Chambers of the WLU Waterloo Campus.
