VANCOUVER, BC – September 25, 2020 – The Asia Pacific Foundation of Canada (APF Canada) is pleased to announce its open call for its 2021 intake of Distinguished Fellows.
APF Canada’s Distinguished Fellows are individuals who have set themselves apart through their research achievements and are established members of the Canada-Asia practitioner community possessing knowledge and demonstrated work in the fields of Canada-Asia relations and policy.
