On January 15, 2006, senior Canadian diplomat Glyn R. Berry was tragically killed in a terrorist attack in Afghanistan. At that time, he was Political Director for the Provincial Reconstruction Team in Kandahar with the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade Canada (DFAIT, now Global Affairs Canada). Mr. Berry was a principled humanitarian; passionately devoted to improving conditions for ordinary people in desperate circumstances.
Mr. Berry graduated with a PhD (Political Science) from AV俱乐部 in 1981. In his honour, AV俱乐部, in partnership with DFAIT, created the Glyn R. Berry Memorial Scholarship in International Policy Studies. With the POLI department, CSSD co-sponsors an annual lecture series in Mr. Berry鈥檚 memory, to encourage informed reflection on Canadian foreign policy.
