Who We Are

People at Parkland Institute include our supporters, our board of directors, our research fellows, our staff, and our volunteers.

Supporters

Parkland Institute would not exist without the generosity of our individual and organizational supporters, and our programming and research levels are both dependent upon (and limited by) your support.

All donations to the Parkland Institute are tax deductible, and supporters receive discounts to our events and other benefits.

Board of Directors

Parkland Institute is governed by a volunteer board of directors that is representative of the diverse publics Parkland engages with.

Parkland’s board members are drawn from both the academic sector and the broader community. Academics on the board represent the Universities of Alberta, Calgary, Lethbridge, Athabasca, and other provincial post-secondary institutions. Community representatives may include members from unions, professional associations, the private sector, faith groups, and community organizations. We also strive for gender and regional balance on the board.
