9. SCHOLARLY AND PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITIES
(a) Areas of special interest and accomplishments
Founder and Co-Director, UBC Migration Research Excellence Cluster
UBC’s Grants Catalyzing Research Clusters (GCRC) program was created in 2016 to promote research excellence across the
faculties. In 2017, I applied for a GCRC grant in the area of Migration. My vision was to bring together UBC migration
researchers from different disciplines to develop academic, community, and policy partnerships. In January 2018, UBC
Migration was founded as an “emerging cluster” with $100,000 of funding; we were successful in seeing this funding renewed
in 2019, and, in 2020, succeeded in moving up to “established cluster” status funded at $230,000. Under my leadership, in the
course of less than 2 years, we built a network of over 50 UBC faculty across the Social Sciences and Humanities, 42
graduate students, 11 community partners, and institutional partnerships with the Berkeley Interdisciplinary Migration
Initiative (BIMI) and the Centre for the Study of Politics and Immigration (CSPI) at Concordia University. Reflecting a vision
of academic, community, and policy collaboration, our first major initiative was a symposium titled “Bridging Research,
Policy and Practice,” which put us on the map for local community partners and municipal, regional, and federal policy
makers. Committed to graduate training, we also organized a 3-day Summer School in Migration Research Methods. I now
co-lead the Cluster with a junior colleague from Occupational Sciences, supported by an interdisciplinary steering committee
of UBC faculty and two community representatives. Cluster faculty serve as Community and Policy Liaisons, we recently
hired a full-time Research Coordinator and two graduate students as Communications Officer and Assistant to the Community
Liaison. We have secured several grants to fund university-community research partnerships, including a SSHRC Partnership
Development grant, and were successful in securing a President’s Excellence Research Chair in Global Migration, valued at
$3 to 5 million, to be appointed in Political Science. We are now applying to become a Centre for Migration Research under
the Faculty of Arts, including a certificate program to train graduate students in migration studies.

Director (since 2017), UBC Institute for European Studies
The UBC Institute for European Studies serves as a hub for scholarly discussion on European politics broadly conceived. As
director, I created a multidisciplinary academic speaker series, organize talks and events on current affairs, and run monthly
research colloquia and community luncheons. Supported by my colleague Kurt Hübner, the IES liaises with the various
European consulates in Vancouver and, each spring, takes undergraduate students on an EU Study Tour to Europe.

Journal of Ethnic and Migration Studies: As editorial board member, I regularly review article manuscripts and
special issue proposals
Politics & Society: This journal has no individual editor and does not send out manuscripts to external reviewers.
Instead, board members undertake all article reviewing and meet three times a year to make decisions on
manuscripts. As board member I write reviews for approximately 15 manuscripts per year and prepare an additional
