Through this program, the RSC invites candidacies for membership from academics and artists who have been displaced through war, conflicts or threats of violence and who, prior to their displacement, were engaged in innovative and entrepreneurial activity, demonstrating a commitment to interdisciplinary collaboration, leadership and responsibility to communities, and who were making meaningful contributions to society.
The workshop will give candidates the opportunity to learn about the RSC and about navigating academia in Canada. Workshop participants will be encouraged to apply for RSC Membership.
