Chris Friesen (ISS of BC) and Jennifer Hyndman (Centre for Refugee Studies at York U) undertook a project to establish a research agenda focusing on government-assisted refugees (GARs) assisted by Resettlement Assistance Service Providers (RAP SPOs). 

Participants were asked to identify research needs and priorities of RAP agencies across Canada and research areas, questions, and issues of concern to their organization. In September 2010, preliminary findings and emerging themes were circulated and feedback was invited.
