The Faculty of Public and Global Affairs (FPGA) is home to more than 200 of Canada\u2019s leading scholars and public intellectuals conducting research at the intersections of politics, policy, and public life. Working within and across more than a dozen schools, institutes, and departments, our faculty members marshal their expertise to tackle the most urgent challenges facing Canada and the world, and to shape knowledge and understanding about their complex political, economic, cultural, and moral entanglements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

FPGA boasts five prestigious Canada Research Chairs who advance Carleton\u2019s leadership in frontiers of economic analysis<\/a>; governance and artificial intelligence<\/a>; gender, race and inclusive politics<\/a>; critical disabilities and communication<\/a>; and migration and care<\/a>. Many of our faculty members are recognized for their international research leadership as Royal Society of Canada Fellows and as Members of the Royal Society of Canada\u2019s College of New Scholars, Artists and Scientists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, FPGA is home to several endowed chairs in such diverse areas as climate policy and sustainability<\/a>, science journalism<\/a>, Canadian parliamentary democracy<\/a>, and international economic policy<\/a>, among others. Our community-engaged, action-oriented research influences and shapes policy, knowledge, and understanding, at the global\/international, national, and local levels. Our faculty members attract high-calibre graduate students and postdoctoral fellows who help advance our research contributions and impacts, and whose own scholarship shapes the future terrain of our disciplines and fields.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, the multiple research institutes and labs in FPGA, funded externally by Canadian and international granting agencies and foundations, are incubators of new ideas that influence how states and governments, civil society actors, and the private sector all confront the wicked problems and pressing issues of our time, including Indigenous governance, migration, human rights, and global security.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \n\n\n \n\n\n\n
