General Information

Project description

To support federal response efforts, Impact Canada is leading the implementation of the World Health Organization (WHO) Behavioural Insights (BI) Tool on COVID-19 in the Canadian context. This work is being led in collaboration with the Public Opinion Research Team within the Privy Council Office’s (PCO) Communications and Consultation Secretariat, which supports the Prime Minister’s Office in coordinating government communications in accordance with key priorities.

Insights garnered will inform the federal response to COVID-19, enabling whole-of-government decision making to meet the specific, changing needs of citizens. Data visualizations will also be published here for citizens and organizations alike to keep a pulse on evolving, nationwide trends.
