The Caledon Institute of Social Policy, also Caledon Institute, is a private Canadian think tank focused on social policy. It was founded in 1992. It wound down its day-to-day operations in 2017 and its archive of articles can be found on the Maytree website.[1]
It is primarily funded by the Maytree Foundation.
The Caledon Institute does not have much public visibility and is infrequently in the news; however, it is thought to play a significant role behind the scenes, as is evident by frequent contact with government departments relative to more visible Canadian think tanks.[2]
