In late 2007, the Pearson Peacekeeping Centre and George Mason University Peace Operations Policy Programme were awarded a grant by the Canadian Embassy in Washington DC to convene a conference titled “The Canadian-United States Engagement in Afghanistan: An Analysis of the “Whole of Government” Approach.
