Undergraduate Student Association

Conflict Studies and Human Rights Association (CHRA)

The CHRA represents undergraduate students in the Conflict Studies and Human Rights program at the University of Ottawa. The association organizes events where students can connect with peers and professors and explore topics related to their program.

The CHRA also advocates for students’ academic interests and rights, acting as a liaison with program administrators to ensure that student voices are heard.

GSPIA Student Association

The Public and International Affairs Association (PIAA) consists of seven members representing the students of GSPIA. Our mandate is to make sure that people have opportunities to meet each other, to have fun with their peers, and to rally with professors and senior fellows to discuss similar interests.

We also address the academic needs and rights of our students through relationships at the program administration level, and have recently created a one-of-its-kind scholarship program, built by students for students.
