Expert Panel on Canada's Strategic Role in Global Health
An Expert Panel of leading Canadian and international global health
experts completed a year-long process to evaluate Canada's strategic role
in global health. The report, entitled Canadians Making a Difference: The
Expert Panel on Canada's Strategic Role in Global Health (
http://trk.cp20.com/Tracking/t.c?OymT-O5Dg-kUMFF1 ) , identifies five
roles in which there is an opportunity for Canada to have significant
global impact: a) indigenous and circumpolar health research; b) public
health programs and research on social determinants of health; c)
community-based primary health care; d) partnerships with developing
countries in education and research; and e) global health innovation.
CIHR is making substantial investments in global health research and is a
partner in the Global Health Research Initiative, which aims to tackle
complex world health problems. Dr. Nancy Edwards, Scientific Director of
the CIHR Institute of Population and Public Health, was a witness of the
Expert Panel commissioned by the Canadian Academy of Health Sciences.

Le Comité d'experts sur le rôle stratégique du Canada en santé mondiale
Un comité d'experts chevronnés en santé mondiale provenant du Canada et
d'ailleurs dans le monde a récemment complété un processus d'évaluation
reposant sur des données probantes pour analyser le rôle stratégique du
Canada en santé mondiale. Le rapport intitulé Des Canadiens qui font une
différence – le Comité d'experts sur le rôle stratégique du Canada en
santé mondiale ( http://trk.cp20.com/Tracking/t.c?OymT-O5ER-kUMFF1 )
identifie cinq rôles qui permettraient au Canada d'avoir un impact notable
à l'échelle mondiale : a) la recherche sur la santé des Autochtones et la
santé circumpolaire, b) la santé des populations et la santé publique, c)
les soins de santé primaires axés sur les communautés, d) les partenariats
judicieux en éducation et en recherche sur la santé, et e) l'innovation en
santé mondiale.
Les IRSC effectuent des investissements substantiels en recherche en santé
mondiale et sont partenaire de l'Initiative de recherche en santé
mondiale, une initiative visant à s'attaquer aux complexes problèmes de
santé mondiale. Dre Nancy Edwards, Directrice scientifique de l'Institut
de la santé publique et des populations des IRSC, était témoin au comité
d'experts nommés par l'Académie canadienne des sciences de la santé.

Call for submissions A&E Annual Rappaport Student Panel and Prize
Dear colleagues,
The Anthropology & Environment Section of AAA calls for abstract
submissions for the Annual Rappaport Student Panel and Prize. A Rappaport
Prize Panel Discussion will be held at the 2012 AAA meeting. Up to five
graduate students will be selected to present a paper in an A&E sponsored
session, and one of those selected will be awarded the Rappaport Student
Prize, which includes a $250 cash award. All five panelists (including the
Prize winner) will receive partial support for travel to the AAA meetings.
All of the selected panelists will be encouraged and guided by the A&E
Board to pursue publication in relevant journals.
Interested graduate students should submit a 500 word, single-authored
abstract Katja Neves (katja.neves_graca@me.com ) either as as a Microsoft
Word attachment, PDF, or Pages for Mac.
* If selected as a finalist, a student will be allowed only to present
in the Rappaport session (although serving as a discussant or
organizer for another session is allowed).
The deadline is January 15, 2012 (Eastern Standard Time). A committee
will select up to five students to be invited to present a paper as part
of the 2012 Rappaport Prize Panel Discussion. Students will be notified
by the committee regarding decisions for the Student Panel in early
February.
Those selected to present in the Discussion Panel will have until October
1, 2012 to write their full, article-length (up to 8000 words) papers.
Consideration for the Rappaport Prize will be based on these papers. The
papers should be written with the expectation that they will ultimately be
submitted for publication.
A&E members and audience will participate in a discussion after the paper
presentations. The Rappaport Prize winner, selected from among the
panelists, will be announced at the A&E Business Meeting.
The Rappaport Prize and Panel is part of a wider effort to improve the
mentoring process for graduate students as they pursue A&E related
careers. Participating provides an opportunity for students to receive
constructive feedback on their work by junior and senior scholars in the
A&E community.
Best wishes,

CALL FOR PAPERS
(version in French follows below)
Canadian Association of African Studies/
Association canadienne des études africaines
Africa in transformation: Africa of individuals, Africa of generations
Laval University
Quebec, Canada
2-4 May 2012
The Canadian Association of African Studies (CAAS) extends a special
invitation to all scholars and professionals working on all aspects of
African Studies for its next annual conference to be held on May 2-4,
2012, at Université Laval in Québec City, Canada. The meeting will be
hosted by the Faculty of Arts and the Faculty of Social Sciences with
support from Laval University, the two Faculties, the Groupe
Interuniversitaire d'Études et de Recherches sur les Sociétés Africaines
(GIERSA), the Observatoire Démographique et Statistique de l'Espace
Francophone (ODSEF), and the Chaire de recherche du Canada en littératures
africaines et Francophonie. Our aim is to attract an international group
of specialists at all stages in their careers for discussion and dialogue
in both of Canada's official languages, across disciplines, and between
scholars and professionals based in both the North and South.
In recent times African societies have experienced tremendous changes,
whether the dimension be social, economic, demographic, political,
media-related, cultural, or religious. This conference aims to explore, in
both French and English, the many facets of these mutations at the level
of individuals as well as at the level of social groups such as
generations, and in the varied contexts of self-affirmation, the
restructuring or erosion of political arrangements, economic crisis,
social tension, affirmation of religious identities, and cultural
pluralism. In the tradition of CAAS, the conference hopes to inspire
interdisciplinary or multidisciplinary inquiry as well as perspectives
over the longue durée.
To be sure, the conference will welcome papers on all topics, but three
major themes may serve to guide reflection about the dramatic changes in
Africa raised in the preceding paragraph:
Theme 1: Observation of the relationships between younger and older
people, men and women, social classes, and generations in order to analyze
the origins of tensions, negotiations as well as the often complex
strategies that lead to cooperation. This theme privileges consideration
of the internal dynamics of African societies and encourages the
reexamination of other classic themes—the power of gerontocracy, the role
of youth as either dependents of their elders or fomenters of violence, or
the situation of women as prisoners of social inferiority.
Theme 2: Analysis of how African societies, as illustrated through the
lives of famous people as well as the not-so-famous and family dynamics
both within and between generations, arrived at ways of responding to or
even resisting the numerous challenges posed by slave trades, diverse
imperialisms, decolonizations, political autocracies, democratic
transitions and their diverse evolutions, and changes in the face of
globalization;
Theme 3: Review considerations of the different forms of participation in
social and public life, and the variety of forms of civic mobilization—of
individuals, social groups, and generations in times of severe political
and socioeconomic crisis. Such an approach encourages reflection about the
varied ways that people and groups position themselves regarding
individualization or community or the two taken together. It also promotes
analysis of the emergence of various forms of socialization and
sociability which may give rise to solidarity. Finally, it allows study of
how these forms of participation are expressed—in the mass media, popular
culture, and arts and literature.
The Canadian Association of African Studies and its journal, the Canadian
Journal of African Studies have long served as important platforms for
scholarship on Africa. As such, and in addition to the more focused themes
elaborated above, the conference welcomes papers on a broad range of
topics and themes related to the continent, both disciplinary and
interdisciplinary. Hence the meeting will be an occasion to share, in both
French and English, research on topics such as the state in Africa, civil
society, migrations, the slave trades, Africa in the international arena,
conflicts within the continent, linguistic practice, religious dynamics,
and so on. In keeping with the bilingual nature of CAAS, paper and panel
proposals in French are particularly welcomed.
The deadline for submitting paper proposals and panel proposals is January
10, 2012. For information on submitting paper and panel abstracts,
conference registration payment (on-line or by cheque), requests for
funding for graduate students in Canada, as well as information regarding
accommodations please send an e-mail to caasacea@carleton.ca and go to
CAAS site which will be updated regularly:
http://ocs.sfu.ca/caas/index.php/caas/conf2012
The organizing committee, the Executive Committee of the association, and
all of its members look forward to welcoming you at Laval University in
Quebec City in May 2012.

APPEL À COMMUNICATIONS
L'Afrique en mutations :
l'Afrique des individus, l'Afrique des générations
Association canadienne des études africaines/
Canadian Association of African Studies
Université Laval
Québec, Canada
Du 2 au 4 mai 2012
L'Association canadienne des études africaines (ACÉA) lance une invitation
toute spéciale aux chercheurs et professionnels travaillant sur les
différents aspects des études africaines pour sa prochaine conférence
annuelle. Celle-ci se tiendra du 2 au 4 mai 2012, à l'Université Laval,
Québec, Canada et sera accueillie par la Faculté des Lettres et la Faculté
des Sciences sociales avec le soutien notamment de l'Université Laval, de
ces deux Facultés, du Groupe Interuniversitaire d'Études et de Recherches
sur les sociétés africaines (GIERSA), de l'Observatoire démographique et
statistique de l'espace francophone (ODSEF) et de la Chaire de recherche
du Canada en littératures africaines et Francophonie. Notre but est de
faire aussi se rencontrer les chercheurs et les étudiants du Sud comme du
Nord, afin de favoriser, par delà les frontières disciplinaires les débats
dans les deux langues officielles du Canada.
En Afrique, les sociétés ont connu jusqu'à aujourd'hui des mutations
majeures, tant aux plans social, économique, démographique, politique,
médiatique, culturel que religieux. À cette conférence, seront explorées,
en français et en anglais, les multiples facettes de ces mutations en
confrontant des réalités sociales tant à l'échelle de l'individu, des
groupes sociaux que des générations et ce, à travers des contextes
d'affirmation, de restructuration ou d'érosion du Politique, de crises
économiques, de tensions sociales, d'affirmation du religieux ou de
foisonnement culturel. La conférence s'inscrit résolument dans une
perspective pluridisciplinaire voire interdisciplinaire et sur la longue
durée.
Trois axes principaux, mais non exclusifs, pourront guider les réflexions :
Axe 1 : observer les rapports entres jeunes et aînés, entre femmes et
hommes, entre classes sociales et entre générations afin d'analyser la
mise en œuvre de tensions, de négociations voire des stratégies complexes
de coopération. Ceci permettra notamment de rendre compte des dynamiques
internes des sociétés africaines, de revisiter les schémas classiques de
la gérontocratie, de l'image d'une jeunesse sacrifiée ou violente, de
l'image de la femme enfermée dans des situations d'infériorité sociale;
Axe 2 : analyser comment les sociétés africaines, à travers des
itinéraires individuels de personnes illustres ou non, des dynamiques
familiales, intra et intergénérationnelles, ont su répondre, résister
voire s'adapter aux défis de la traite, des impérialismes, des
décolonisations, des autoritarismes politiques, des transitions
démocratiques et de ses évolutions contrastées et de la mondialisation ;
Axe 3 : rendre compte des différentes formes de participation à la vie
sociale et publique, de mobilisation citoyenne des individus, des groupes
sociaux et des générations dans des moments de crises politiques et
socioéconomiques aigües. Ceci permettra, d'une part, de réfléchir sur des
postures en lien avec l'individualisation, celles en lien avec la
communauté et celles à la jonction des deux d'autre part, d'analyser les
formes de socialisation, de sociabilité voire de solidarité qui peuvent en
émerger et enfin, d'étudier les différentes façons dont ces participations
s'expriment à travers les médias de masse, la culture populaire, les arts
et la littérature.
L'ACÉA et sa revue Revue canadienne des études africaines ont depuis
toujours constitué des plateformes importantes pour les travaux sur le
continent africain. Dans l'objectif de regrouper toutes les recherches sur
les questions africaines, cette conférence accueillera ainsi des
communications sur un large éventail de sujets, avec des approches
disciplinaires ou interdisciplinaires. C'est ainsi que la conférence sera
l'occasion de partager, en français et en anglais, des recherches sur
divers sujets tels que sur l'État en Afrique, la société civile, les
migrations, les traites, l'Afrique dans les relations internationales, les
conflits en Afrique, les dynamiques religieuses, les pratiques langagières
etc. Reflétant la nature bilingue de l'ACÉA, les propositions de
communications et d'ateliers en français sont particulièrement les
bienvenues.
La date limite d'envoi des résumés des communications et des panels est le
10 janvier 2012. Pour les informations relatives à l'envoi des résumés, à
l'organisation des panels, à l'inscription (en ligne ou par chèque), aux
demandes d'aide financière pour les étudiants inscrits dans une université
canadienne et à l'hébergement, envoyez un courriel à caasacea@carleton.ca
et consultez le site http://ocs.sfu.ca/caas/index.php/caas/conf2012 qui
sera régulièrement mis à jour.
Le comité d'organisation, le comité exécutif de l'association et tous ses
membres se font d'ores et déjà une joie de vous recevoir à l'Université
Laval, à Québec, en mai 2012.

Ethnographic Terminalia
ETHNOGRAPHIC TERMINALIA 2011: MONTRÉAL – FIELD, STUDIO, LAB
Exhibition & Opening Reception/Public Vernissage
The terminus is the end, the boundary, and the border.
It is also a beginning, its own place, a site of experience and encounter.
Ethnographic Terminalia is an annual exhibition of international artists
and researchers working at the intersection of art and anthropology. From
15-19 November 2011, Ethnographic Terminalia welcomes visitors at Eastern
Bloc Centre for New Media and Interdisciplinary Art in Montréal, Canada.
This year's show is organized in collaboration with Concordia University's
Centre for Ethnographic Research & Exhibition in the Aftermath of Violence
(CEREV) and is scheduled to coincide with the 110th annual meetings of the
American Anthropological Association (AAA), which are convening in Canada
for the first time. Ethnographic Terminalia brings anthropologists and
artists together in the gallery space to investigate the borders and
blurrings of contemporary art practice and alternative modes of cultural
inquiry and representation. Ethnographic Terminalia is an exploration of
what it might mean to exhibit anthropology – particularly in some of its
less traditional forms – in proximity to and conversation with
contemporary art practices.
Now in its third year (following New Orleans in 2010 and in Philadelphia
in 2009), Ethnographic Terminalia represents an international array of
creative material, conceptual, and new media engagements where
anthropology and art intersect: sound, drawing, sculpture, photography,
printmaking, video, film, internet and multi-media. For Ethnographic
Terminalia 2011: Montréal the curators have selected over twenty five
artists and cultural researchers including: Humberto Vélez, Ian
Kirkpatrick, Renée Ridgway, Jennifer Willett, Benjamin Funke, Chantal
Francoeur, Venetia Dale, Barbara Rosenthal, MomenTech, Chantal Gibson,
Andrew Norman Wilson, Stephen Foster, Siraj Izhar, Henry Adam Svec, Public
Laboratory for Open Technology and Science, La Cosa Preziosa (Susanne
Caprara), Luc Messinezis, Laura Malacart, Alyssa Grossamn & Selena
Kimball, Alexandrine Boudreault-Fournier & Marie-Josée Proulx, Lesley
Braun, Sarah Christman, Aryo Danusiri, Valentina Ferrandes, Erin Newell,
and projects from Concordia University's CEREV Workshop (Erica Lehrer,
Florencia Marchetti, Monica Eileen Patterson, Joseph Rosen, Selina
Antonucci, Ashley Clarkson, Katie King, Matthew Foster, Rachel Rotrand,
and Alejandro Yoshizawa).

ETHNOGRAPHIC TERMINALIA 2011: MONTRÉAL – TERRAIN, STUDIO, LABO
Exposition / Vernissage public
Le terminus est la fin, la limite, la frontière.
Il est aussi son propre lieu ainsi qu'un commencement, un site
d'expériences et de rencontres.
Ethnographic Terminalia est une exposition annuelle qui rassemble des
artistes et des chercheurs du monde entier travaillant au carrefour de
l'art et de l'anthropologie. Du 15 au 19 novembre 2011, Ethnographic
Terminalia accueillera les visiteurs dans le centre de production et
d'exposition voué à la promotion des nouveaux médias et des arts
interdisciplinaires, Eastern Bloc, situé à Montréal, au Canada.
L'évènement de cette année est organisé en collaboration avec le centre de
recherche ethnographique et expographique sur l'après violence (CEREV –
Université Concordia). Il aura lieu en même temps que la 110ème réunion
annuelle de l'Association Américaine d'Anthropologie, qui, pour la
première fois de son histoire, se réunira au Canada. Ethnographic
Terminalia rassemble des anthropologues et des artistes dans l'espace
d'exposition afin que ceux-ci réfléchisent ensemble sur les notions de
frontières et de fusions dans le domaine de l'art contemporain et qu'ils
s'interrogent sur l'existence de possibles modes alternatifs de
représentation et de médiation culturelle. Ethnographic Terminalia est une
exploration de ce que pourrait signifier «exposer l'anthropologie»
(principalement dans ses formes les moins traditionnelles), en relation
avec les pratiques artistiques contemporaines.
Actuellement dans sa troisième année (après s'être arrêté à la Nouvelle
Orléans en 2010 et à Philadelphie en 2009), Ethnographic Terminalia met en
scène une vaste gamme de projets innovants, incluant de l'art conceptuel
ainsi que divers travaux, réalisés grâce aux nouveaux médias et par le
biais desquels l'anthropologie et l'art s'entrecroisent : son, dessin,
sculpture, photographie, gravure, vidéo, film, internet et multi-media.
Pour l'évènement Ethnographic Terminalia 2011: Montréal, les responsables
ont sélectionné plus de vingt cinq artistes et chercheurs travaillant dans
le domaine de la culture. Parmi ceux-ci : Humberto Vélez, Ian Kirkpatrick,
Renée Ridgway, Jennifer Willett, Benjamin Funke, Chantal Francoeur,
Venetia Dale, Barbara Rosenthal, MomenTech, Chantal Gibson, Andrew Norman
Wilson, Stephen Foster, Siraj Izhar, Henry Adam Svec, Public Laboratory
for Open Technology and Science, La Cosa Preziosa (Susanne Caprara), Luc
Messinezis, Laura Malacart, Alyssa Grossamn & Selena Kimball, Alexandrine
Boudreault-Fournier & Marie-Josée Proulx, Lesley Braun, Sarah Christman,
Aryo Danusiri, Valentina Ferrandes, Erin Newell. Les projets d'Erica
Lehrer, Florencia Marchetti, Monica Eileen Patterson, Joseph Rosen, Selina
Antonucci, Ashley Clarkson, Katie King, Matthew Foster, Rachel Rotrand et
Alejandro Yoshizawa, réalisés dans le cadre de l'atelier CEREV (Université
Concordia), seront également présentés.

7. European scholars call for a broad social sciences and
humanities-centred research program
CFHSS has signed an open letter from the European Federation of
National Academies of Sciences and Humanities (ALLEA), and other
organizations, to the European Commissioner for Research and
Innovation, Maire Geoghegan-Quinn, pledging for more funding in the
next EU Framework Programme (2014-2020), Horizon 2020. In this
letter, ALLEA and its partners express worries that not enough
funding might be dedicated to humanities and social sciences in the
next Framework Programme, undermining efforts from Europe to tackle
social challenges.
Proposing, in Understanding Europe in a global context: transitions
towards innovation societies, a robust social sciences and
humanities-centred research program, the organizations calls Horizon
2020 for a more integrated perspective.
Anyone who thinks that research in humanities should be more funded
to fully contribute to the society is invited to sign.

des acadÉmies nationales des sciences et sciences humaines (ALLEA)
et d'autres organisations, À la commissaire europÉenne À la
recherche et l'innovation, Maire Geoghegan-Quinn, pour plaider en
faveur d'un plus grand financement dans le cadre du programme-cadre
de l'UE (2014-2020) pour la recherche et l'innovation, Horizon 2020.
Dans cette lettre, ALLEA et ses partenaires expriment leurs craintes
de voir un financement pour les sciences humaines insuffisant, ce qui
nuirait aux efforts europÉens pour faire face aux dÉfis sociaux.
Dans le document Understanding Europe in a global context:
transitions towards innovation societies, le groupe propose un solide
programme de recherche axÉ sur les sciences humaines, et demande une
perspective plus intÉgrÉe pour Horizon 2020.
Tous ceux qui croient que la recherche en sciences humaines devrait
Être mieux financÉe pour contribuer encore plus À la sociÉtÉ
devraient signer.
