Founded in 1969, the Institute of Urban Studies (IUS) was established with the mandate of assessing government housing practices and suggesting innovations for Winnipeg’s inner-city housing. In later years the mandate was expanded into consulting services and academic publications and conferences. The IUS is an independently operating branch of the University of Winnipeg and received it’s funding from the Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation (now the Canadian Mortgage and Housing Corporation). The Institute has had a continuing focus over the years on Indigenous inner-city programs.
