"Vivre ensemble à Montréal. Épreuves et convivialités": CIRM's First Publication

Montreal and Quebec Studies Lose a Great Ambassador
The CIRM and the McGill’s Quebec Studies Program learned with great sorrow of the passing of McGill’s Chancellor Emerita Gretta Chambers. Dear friend of CIRM and the Quebec Studies Program, she is one of those who supported the creation of the first research group dedicated to Montreal studies, at McGill, in 2012.
Soon to be published : « Vivre ensemble à Montréal »
In 2015, Montreal was the host of the Living Together Summit. For Montreal’s 375th anniversary, the CIRM wanted to examine the mechanisms and processes that have made it possible, in the history of the city, to maintain a relative social peace. The collective work emerging from those reflections will not provide solutions to actual conflicts; it will not give any lessons and will in no way offer a hymn to “living together”.
Gorka Espiau : Professor of Practice 2017-2018
It is with great pleasure that the CIRM welcomes, for a second consecutive year, Mr. Gorka Espiau as Professor of practice of the McConnell Foundation Program.
CIRM : Official Research Center of McGill University
Since 2014, the Center for Interdisciplinary Research on Montreal has had the standing of a provisional center of the Faculty of Arts of McGill University. On May 25th this year, following a one-year evaluation process, the Senate of McGill University granted the CIRM the status of a permanent research center.
