On Nov 4th, some of our peers’ participated in the Policy-at-Munk Fall Case Competition — the first case competition of the school year! Within the span of one week, the teams proposed policy recommendations for the healthcare crisis in Ontario.

“As aspiring policy professionals, this was such a neat experience and a great way to hone our policy skills. We got to present to an impressive panel of judges who work at all levels of government, and this really challenged us to come up with innovative yet realistic ways to tackle real-world problems. This was my first case competition but it definitely won't be my last!” - Ayaka Kimata, MPP1
