CIPSS/CEPSI-CIPS GRADUATE STUDENT E-CONFERENCE Keynote: Dr Christian Reus-Smit, University of Queensland

About this event

The theme of this year’s conference is Global Governance: Vulnerability and Resilience in Uncertain Times. The retreat from many multilateral institutions and breakdown in international cooperation we have seen over the past decade has been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic. Furthermore, several long-standing fault lines among institutions and practices of global governance across multiple issue areas have been amplified by the unique circumstances which currently shape our world. This conference to bring together original research ideas that tackle both new and longstanding questions related to Global Governance, broadly defined. Topics include the protection and rights of migrants and refugees, violence and armed conflict, climate change and the environment, multilateral institutions, the global health system, protectionism, nationalism, and economic development. This conference is an opportunity for graduate students (Masters and PhD) to share their research, hone their presentation skills, and network with other researchers. Participants will receive feedback on their work from CIPSS, McGill University professors during the thematic panels.
