The National Metropolis Conference is an annual forum for researchers, policy makers, representatives from community and settlement organizations to get together to share and exchange knowledge and experience in the field of immigration and settlement. This year, the 16th National Metropolis Conference was held from March 12 to 15, 2014 in Gatineau, Quebec.

The conference entitled, "Partnering for Success: Facilitating Integration and Inclusion" focused on future immigration trends and policies and the challenges and opportunities that they create for Canadian society. The conference included plenary panels with distinguished speakers and workshop and roundtable sessions on a wide variety of topics related to immigration and diversity.
