The QUESCREN Education and Vitality Forum took place and was recorded by QUESCREN on Nov. 2-3, 2023, at Concordia University in Montreal, QC. In its third iteration, it focussed on current concerns and strategies for an inclusive and quality English-language education system. It provided a space for researchers, education practitioners, community stakeholders, policy-makers, and various audience members to share information, research, and best practices.

The event was made possible through the financial support of the Secrétariat aux relations avec les Québécois d'expression anglaise. QUESCREN also receives funding from the Department of Canadian Heritage, the Canadian Institute for Research on Linguistic Minorities, Concordia University and the Consortium of English-language CEGEPS, Colleges and Universities of Quebec.
