Better Evidence Conference
At a time when Canada is facing far reaching challenges—from affordability to climate change to global stability—unlocking the power of data and evidence is essential to build better outcomes for all Canadians. This was highlighted at the Better Evidence Conference, organized by Blueprint and the Institute of Fiscal Studies and Democracy at the University of Ottawa.
The sold-out Better Evidence Conference convened top experts and decision-makers to discuss shaping Canada's future through people-centered, data-driven and evidence-informed policy. Over 200 delegates from government, civil society and academia engaged in conversations related to:
- Trends with how data and evidence are used in Canadian government decision-making
- The role of leadership, culture, and systems in overcoming barriers to use data and evidence
- Actionable strategies for Canadian governments to strengthen evidence-informed decision-making.

Our team and partners live and work on the traditional territory of many Indigenous people across Turtle Island. Blueprint’s home office is situated in the area known as Tkaronto, an area that has been caretaken by the Anishinabek Nation, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, and the Huron-Wendat for thousands of years. We strive to meaningfully incorporate principles of reconciliation with First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples in our day-to-day work, as is our collective responsibility as treaty people, which requires ongoing reflection and collective action.
