Founded in 1994, the Centre for Cultural Renewal‏ is a non-partisan Canadian think-tank that focuses on the relevance of religion within society. [1]

Originally named the Centre for Renewal in Public Policy[1], the foundation is based in Ottawa, Ontario and supported by a number of notable Canadian scholars and practitioners in medicine, law, education and politics.[2]

The Centre, which is non-denominational, has often been cited by Parliamentary Committees and, on occasion, by the courts[citation needed].

It has co-sponsored conferences with Simon Fraser University, the University of British Columbia and the Faculty of Religious Studies at McGill University
