Regional Hubs

Le PhiLab possède 4 centres régionaux qui gèrent des projets de recherche partenariale à travers le Canada.

PhiLab Québec

Le Hub Québec est dirigé par Caroline Bergeron et la coordination est effectuée par Diane Alalouf-Hall. Il est situé à Montréal dans les locaux de l’Université du Québec à Montréal.

Adresse de contact: philabquebec@uqam.ca

Le PhiLab Québec est le plus ancien centre régional du Réseau PhiLab. Il est structuré en trois grands pôles: laboratoire, observatoire et académie.

L’Observatoire gère des bases de données et des activités de recherche de temps court, type portraits. Il diffuse et vulgarise des connaissances sur l’écosystème philanthropique canadien et est également un relais de diffusion des recherches provenant des unités de recherche internationales associées. En ce qui concerne son Académie, PhiLab Québec encourage les étudiants-es à prendre part aux activités, et soutient les projets de ceux et celles qui, dans le cadre de leurs études au premier, deuxième ou troisième cycle, souhaitent perfectionner leurs connaissances dans les champs de recherche associés au laboratoire montréalais de recherche sur la philanthropie canadienne. Pour ce faire, le Philab Québec offre des stage, lance des appels de texte, soutient ses étudiants à participer lors des séminaires étudiants, webinaires, et autres séminaires par des communications par affiche souvent en collaboration du CRISES.

PhiLab de l'Atlantique

Le Centre Régional de l’Atlantique est dirigé par Roza Tchoukaleyska la coordination est effectuée par Brady Reid. Il est  situé sur le Grenfell Campus du Memoral University à Cornerbrook.

Courriel central du Hub: philab@grenfell.mun.ca

Nos recherches dans le Canada atlantique portent sur deux domaines interdépendants. Premièrement, nous ferons la cartographie des circuits d’échange entre les fondations octroyant et recevant des subventions à Terre-Neuve. Cela inclut les mouvements d’argent (qui fait des dons, qui collecte les fonds, comment est-il dispersé?) et d’information (comment les politiques nationales interagissent avec les idées locales, comment les idées voyagent-elles entre zones urbaines et rurales?). Deuxièmement, nous évaluerons la capacité rurale dans l’écosystème d’octroi de subventions du Canada atlantique. Nous nous attendons à ce que le contexte philanthropique en général et le rôle des fondations en particulier diffèrent du Canada atlantique et des régions plus périphériques et rurales des contextes canadiens plus urbains. 

Nous nous demandons comment les attachements au lieu influent sur la volonté des donateurs de soutenir des organisations philanthropiques et nous examinerons comment des partenariats transdisciplinaires sont formés entre les universités, le gouvernement, l’industrie, le public et d’autres ONG dans le but de maximiser l’impact de la philanthropie sur la durabilité des communautés. Les deux volets du projet intègrent un intérêt pour l’idée de «philanthropie fondée sur des preuves» (parfois appelée altruisme efficace) et sur la manière de mettre au point des systèmes de suivi et de production de rapports sur les impacts pour faire progresser la philanthropie rurale.
