Pension Centre of Excellence Brings Together Leaders at Spring Symposium on Retirement Income Security, Welcomes New Members

The National Institute on Ageing’s Pension Centre of Excellence (PCE) brought together leaders from across the retirement sector this week for its 3rd Symposium, reinforcing its mission to bridge the gap between knowledge and action across Canada’s retirement income landscape.

Held in Toronto, the Symposium focused on the future of pension communication in Canada, anchored by the PCE’s report, Understanding and Communicating the Value of Workplace Retirement Plans. Through panels, case studies and interactive sessions, participants explored how to translate research insights into action — from reframing the Canadian retirement income system to support greater clarity and long-term thinking, to promoting the intangible benefits of workplace plans, and improving decision-making tools to help Canadians make more informed retirement planning choices.
