Publications

The NATO Association of Canada publishes special reports which serve as more comprehensive, textured, critical pieces rather than the traditional article format. Special reports include policy briefs, communiques, critiques, and/or a compilation of works in a journal format. In order to facilitate these publications,  the NATO Association of Canada often partners with other organizations, members of the military (officers, generals etc), federal government agencies, members of the Canadian government, diplomats, and academics, as well as members of the NATO Association itself, including Editors, Research Fellows, and Analysts.

  • The mission of NATO Association of Canada is to promote peace, prosperity, and security through knowledge and understanding of the importance of NATO.

    We strive to educate and engage Canadians about NATO and NATO’s goal of peace, prosperity and security. NATO Association of Canada ensures that we have an informed citizenry able to contribute to discussions about Canada’s role on the world stage.

    As a leading member of the Atlantic Treaty Association (ATA), NATO Association of Canada has strong and enduring ties with sister organizations in many of the alliance countries, as well as members of NATO’s “Partnership for Peace” and “Mediterranean Dialogue” programmes. The NAOC has had a leading role in the recent transformation and modernization of the ATA, and helped to create and develop the Youth Atlantic Treaty Association (YATA).

    The NAOC has strong ties with the Government of Canada including Global Affairs Canada and the Department of National Defence. We are constantly working to create and maintain relationships with international organizations such as the World Bank Group, the European Bank of Reconstruction and Development, NATO Headquarters, the International Criminal Court, and other prominent international NGOs and think tanks.
