The Canadian Youth Policy Association (CanYPA) is a politically and economically oriented youth association based in Canada.[1] According to its website, the organization aims to be a bold voice for Canadian youth in politics, with articles written and edited by students, interviews conducted by students, and networking opportunities for like-minded students.[2] The organization hopes to build a coalition of youth for a responsible, evidence-based, and sustainable vision of policy in tomorrow’s Canada.[3][2][4]
Membership
The CanYPA has over 1000 members in 10 provinces and 3 territories.[5] It has been recognized legally through incorporation status and by the Government of Canada.
Projects and initiatives
In 2021, the Canadian Youth Policy Organization partnered with the Canadian government and launched a national conversation with youth.[5][6][5]
The CanYPA has also held policy-oriented essay competitions and networking conferences annually in Vancouver, British Columbia.
