The Commission is led by the Max Bell School, the Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies, and the Centre for International Governance Innovation. Following the first in-person meeting of Commissioners in Baltimore on October 21, the Commission will continue to meet over the next year to deliberate on policy recommendations and develop a report for policy makers in Canada and the United States. Commissioners are supported by expert research papers and other analysis and engagement activities. The RA will help organize the meetings of the Commissioners, support the Research Director to manage the production of research papers, conduct research to support the Commission as required and play an integral role in shaping the Youth Assembly.
