As a hub in a global network of scholars, practitioners, and students, BSIA aims to develop new solutions to humanity’s critical problems, improve global governance now and in the future, and enhance the quality of people’s lives around the world. Founded in 2007 by philanthropist Jim Balsillie, BSIA is an equal collaboration among the Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI), the University of Waterloo (UW), and Wilfrid Laurier University (Laurier). The collaborating institutions bring to BSIA different but complementary strengths, so they have different roles and responsibilities. The two universities employ BSIA faculty and offer BSIA’s academic programs, while CIGI, as a think tank, uses its in-house expertise and its worldwide network of practitioners to help inform and guide BSIA’s outreach and collaborative research. The unique integration of the collaborating institutions’ approaches and cultures gives BSIA an unmatched ability to promote vigorous engagement across boundaries of discipline and practice, to connect today’s experts with tomorrow’s leaders in critical debate and analysis, and to achieve—in all its work—the highest standards of excellence. Page 1 BSIA ANNUAL REPORT 2013 - 2014 Highlights of the Year The 2013-14 academic year was a year of milestones for the Balsillie School of International Affairs (BSIA). The School was incorporated as a not-for-profit organization in August 2013; the Canada Revenue Agency granted the School charitable status at the start of its 2014 Fiscal Year. The School was successful in its first grant application--in conjunction with the Centre for Security Governance and Wilfrid Laurier University-- gaining support from the International Development Research Centre for an e-series on contemporary debates in peace-building and state-building. The School was one of four Canadian institutions chosen by the French embassy to be a strategic partner for its Saint-Simon Initiative. We signed a five-year internship agreement with CIVICUS: The World Alliance for Citizen Participation. We entered into a partnership with the local Rotary Clubs who are funding Rotary Peace Scholarships for our students. The School also hired its first employees. Meanwhile, it was an exceptionally productive year for the School’s faculty and graduate students. The faculty continued to receive national and international recognition for their work. Among the notable honours this year was the award by the Royal Society of Canada (RSC) of its Sir John William Dawson medal for excellence to Rhoda Howard-Hassmann for her contributions on the social science of human rights. James Walker was named Fellow of the RSC for his outstanding research in the areas of Canadian and international human rights. Jennifer Clapp was one of four Canadians awarded a Fellowship by the Trudeau Foundation. Jonathan Crush received a multi-million dollar grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council for his project on global cities. Jorge Heine was appointed Chile’s ambassador to the People’s Republic of China. Faculty publications in the year numbered more than 300 (see Faculty Publications list below). These included books with Cornell University Press, MIT Press, Oxford University Press, the University of Toronto Press, Polity, McGill-Queens University Press, and UBC Press. Faculty also published in leading journals such as the The Annals of the American Academy of Political and Social Science, British Journal of Social Psychology, Ethics and International Affairs, Foreign Affairs, International Journal of Sociology, Journal of Development Studies, Journal of Law, Economics and Organization, The Lancet, Philosophy of Science, Political Research Quarterly, Review of International Political Economy, and Third World Quarterly. Faculty also contributed op- eds in a variety of national and international newspapers including The New York Times, The Globe and Mail, the Toronto Star and the Huffington Post. Faculty were also in great demand for interviews for radio and TV. The School hosted more than 65 events in the year involving more than 120 speakers, details of which are listed under Outreach and Events. Page 2 BSIA ANNUAL REPORT 2013 - 2014 Graduate Programs The School’s exceptional multi-disciplinary graduate programs continued to attract high calibre students. The popularity of the programs is seen in the high number of applications and the very high acceptance rate of our offers. For the PhD in Global Governance program, only nine offers were made to fill the eight places available. For the MA Global Governance (MAGG) program, 25 offers were made to fill 18 places. The Master of International Public Policy (MIPP) Program received 67 applications and admitted 16 students. Our PhD students were awarded approximately $600,000 in external funding this year. Awards included a Vanier, Trillium and Canada Graduate Scholarship. Three incoming MA Global Governance students were also awarded external funding, totaling $50,000 (two SSHRCs and an OGS), and one MIPP student received an OGS. During the year, our PhD students presented papers at 20 academic conferences in Canada and internationally. Four PhD students published articles in refereed international journals. Seven PhD students successfully defended their theses during the year. Of these, two obtained tenure-track positions in universities, one received a prestigious post-doc, one was hired at a think tank, and three are contract researchers. In June, the MIPP students attended the annual meeting in Ottawa hosted by former Canadian Permanent Representative of Canada to the United Nations, Paul Heinbecker. While in Ottawa, the students met with various government officials, politicians and several former Canadian ambassadors. Once again, they were kindly hosted by Ambassador Cees Kole at the Dutch Embassy Residence. Five of the Masters students (two from the MAGG and three from the MIPP) presented papers at the annual conference of the Academic Council of the UN System in Istanbul in May 2014. CIGI has published three junior fellows briefs from this year’s cohort to date and a further five are in the pipeline. Our students undertook internships in Frankfurt, Jakarta, Johannesburg, Ottawa, Pretoria, San Francisco, Washington, and San Francisco. Collaboration with CIGI The School continued to benefit in multiple ways from its partnership with the Centre for International Governance Innovation (CIGI). The CIGI Junior Fellowship supported thirty-two students in the Masters programs. Jim Balsillie opened the annual CIGI Junior Fellowship Symposium at which students presented their draft policy papers. Ambassador Joseph Caron, Canada’s former High Commissioner to India and former ambassador to China and Japan, was the keynote speaker at the event. CIGI and the School co- sponsored a substantial number of events. Funding from CIGI enabled the School to provide support for Page 3 BSIA ANNUAL REPORT 2013 - 2014 additional workshops in the second half of the year. Two School faculty, Patricia Goff and Hongying Wang, were appointed Senior Fellows in CIGI’s Global Economy program, and David Welch was appointed a Senior Fellow in CIGI’s Global Security program. David Welch and Andrew Thompson co-hosted CIGI’s Inside the Issues weekly podcast throughout the year. Tad Homer-Dixon and Alan Whiteside each received major grants from CIGI to support their research. CIGI and the School co-hosted a well-attended reception at the annual convention of the International Studies Association in Toronto in March. The establishment of CIGI’s International Law Program in May 2014 offers exciting opportunities for extending collaboration in new directions. Areas of Research Excellence As part of its strategic planning exercise, the School has identified the areas where it intends to concentrate its resources in the coming years. They are: Conflict and Security Environment and Resources Global Political Economy Migration, Mobilities and Social Politics Multilateral Institutions Science and Health Policy John Ravenhill Director Page 4 BSIA ANNUAL REPORT 2013 - 2014 Outreach and Events China and the G20: Goals, Strategies and Agenda June 23, 2014 Alex He, CIGI Visiting Scholar, Chinese Academy of Social Sciences How (well) are we adapting to the water-related impacts of climate change?

  • Vickie's Vantage
    LAURENTIAN UNIVERSITY MAGAZINE FOR ALUMNI & FRIENDS SUMMER 2009 vickie’s VANTAGE Recession impressions from the class of CEOs There’s something about Barrie DRIVING CREATIVITY, INNOVATION, AND PROSPERITY To say that I am appreciative of the contributions and generosity of Laurentian University’s donors is an understatement. The financial assistance I have received throughout my time as a student at Laurentian has been invaluable. It has given me not only financial stability, but has allowed me to focus on my academic studies, which are my greatest passion in life. Acting as the student spokesperson at the Next 50 Campaign internal launch event in January wasn’t just a chance to get a little air time or to hear myself speak aloud (which, if you ask my teachers, is what I like best). Instead, it was a chance for me to thank the many caring people who are directly responsible for the success of numerous students through their generous contributions to scholarships and bursaries. Speaking at the Next 50 Campaign event in January also allowed me to urge the Laurentian community to become involved by continuing to support the internal campaign. It didn’t take long to see results. Success stories and the involvement of faculty and staff were evident everywhere on campus. The faculty in my very own department began contributing to the campaign by creat- ing a travel grant for future students. When the final tally for the 2008/2009 in- ternal component of the Next 50 Campaign was announced at the beginning of April, I was truly impressed, as were many oth- ers.
