Graduate School Information Session
On November 4th, WIIS Canada and WIIS McGill hosted a virtual graduate school information session with a student and professor panel. Participants were able to learn from and be inspired by students and professors from top universities, including Cambridge University, Queen's University, University of Toronto, Norman Paterson School of International Affairs, and so many more! We are extremely grateful for the participation of such wonderful academics and scholars, as WIIS-C members found their insights incredibly valuable.
Shaping Canada’s Future: Women Leaders in Business and Security
On October 18th, Women in International Security Canada and the NATO Association of Canada proudly hosted an event in Ottawa with leaders and changemakers in the fields of business, security, and gender equality. "Shaping Canada’s Future: Women Leaders in Business and Security" offered an insightful evening focused on the vital role of women in shaping peace and security in Canada and globally.
