Events
The North-South Institute (NSI) holds a variety of events in Ottawa, elsewhere in Canada and abroad in the pursuit of its research identifying policies and practices to reduce poverty and global inequalities and contributing to the creation of a more prosperous and stable global community.

The institute organizes major gatherings such as its June, 2011 Ottawa Forum on The Future of Multilateral Development Cooperation in a Changing Global Order and its 2010 conference on Enhancing Domestic Resource Mobilization in Sub-Saharan Africa held at Wilton Park in London.

NSI also hosts functions where it shares its research findings or invites leading-edge experts to speak on topical issues affecting development and the changing global order, such as the NSI-CIDA Speaker Series in Ottawa, where presentations were made by leading experts from bodies such as the International Labour Organisation, the African Medical Research Foundation and the Carnegie Endowment.
 
Institute events vary from the annual launch of the Canadian Development Report (CDR) in several cities in Canada, to functions such as the release of books written or edited by NSI staff such as the works Elections in Dangerous Places, and African Women on the Thin Blue Line. NSI also holds workshops, roundtables and brown-bag gatherings addressing topics related to its overarching goal of reducing poverty and inequality.
