UNBC’s Department of Global & International Studies has joined the Global Studies Association, North America (http://www.net4dem.org/mayglobal/). A Global Studies Association (GSA) (https://globalstudiesassoc.wordpress.com/), based in the United Kingdom, was founded in 2000 and the North American branch in 2002.

Here is how GSA and GSA, North America introduce themselves:
“The Global Studies Association (GSA) is a multi-disciplinary scholarly association set up in order to address the vast social, political & economic transformations of global scope which are impacting upon the world today. The GSA provides a forum for scholars to collaborate & explore shared responses to such phenomenon, particularly in the context of globalisation. The commitment to multidisciplinarity & to the global context make the GSA unique in its aims & scope & thus offering its members invaluable contacts & connections. In addition, the thematic approach of the GSA allows interests which are not easily accommodated in single disciplinary associations to be fully recognised & encouraged. Thus individuals who share a common commitment to enhancing understanding of global life can find an intellectual home by working with others in the GSA.”
