Perspectives on Retaining a DRDC Human Sciences Centre...in Toronto

Abstract

Defence R&D Canada (DRDC) is embarking on a central initiative to develop a comprehensive infrastructure strategy. A major objective of the initiative is to identify and justify the infrastructure required by DRDC to ensure that it remains a world leader in its Science & Technology activities. The strategy will include addressing issues such as the location of the research centres and the associated synergy that exists with industry and academia in the various research centre locations. The initial stage of this initiative involves collecting perspectives from each of the DRDC research centres. This document is a summary of the related DRDC Toronto managers perspectives. Two main issues are addressed in the document: the importance of retention of a centralized (rather than distributed) human sciences capability by DRDC; and, considerations related to the location in Toronto.
