Institutional Partnership Program

Universities from all parts of the world, with reputations for leading scholarship and strong educational programs in public policy and comparative studies, may become International Institutional Members, also referred to as Partners, of the Journal of Comparative Policy Analysis (JCPA) and the Scholarly Society for International Comparative Policy Analysis Forum (ICPA- Forum). Institutional membership is by invitation only and represents recognition of the contributions made to the field of comparative public policy by the institution, its educational programs, the scholarly reputation of its faculty and the research they produce.

 

Purpose: Funds received through the invitational International Institutional Membership Program are used to support the JCPA/ICPA-Forum related activities to advance the domain of comparative international policy studies. These include, but are not limited to: annual workshops in the area of comparative policy studies, guest lectures, awards for best comparative papers at key international conferences, sponsorship of comparative panels at conferences, collaborative comparative research, comparative public policy publications of books, book series and others, as well as other initiatives suggested by sponsors and approved by the Board of Directors. Institutions are asked to commit to maintain membership for a period of no less than three (3) years.

 

Levels of Partnership and Benefits: The Program is at one of three levels: Gold or Silver, corresponding to annual rates as of January 1, 2016, of $1050 and $550 US, respectively. Benefits of each level of sponsorship are listed in the table below.

 

As of 2020 we welcome invited institutions to become JCPA and ICPA-Forum Sponsors extending sponsorship of over $3500.

 

Selected through bids in past years,  the JCPA and ICPA-Forum offers the opportunity to establish a Hub of Comparative Public Policy, hosting the Journal  and Scholarly Society by involving faculty in the leadership of the Journal and Society and their initiatives. The forms and extent of support is negotiable.

 

Finally, as a not-for-profit Society the ICPA-Forum is also open to donations.

 

Council Leadership: Representatives of all Partner Institutions are invited to serve on the JCPA and ICPA-Forum Council,  represent the JCPA and ICPA-Forum Council, and actively be involved in decision making and initiatives.

For information about Institutional Membership / Sponsorship opportunities, contact the JCPA/ICPA-Forum Executive Coordinator for International Partnerships, Shawn Drake at ShawnDrake@cmail.carleton.ca
