We are pleased to announce the appointment of two new RSC Honorary Associates: Professor Jane McAdam and Dr Madeline Garlick. The position of Honorary Associates is intended as a mark of distinction for those with a longstanding relationship with the Refugee Studies Centre and particularly those who have made a great contribution to our activities and mission.
Professor Jane McAdam AO is Scientia Professor of Law and Director of the Kaldor Centre for International Refugee Law at UNSW Sydney, where she also leads the Evacuations Research Hub. She is an Australian Research Council Laureate Fellow, and a Fellow of both the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia and the Australian Academy of Law. She has held visiting appointments at Oxford and Harvard, and was previously a non-resident Senior Fellow in Foreign Policy at The Brookings Institution in Washington DC.
Dr Madeline Garlick is Chief of the Protection Policy and Legal Advice Section in the Division of International Protection at UNHCR in Geneva. In early 2018, she was Assistant Representative for Protection for UNHCR in Iraq. She was previously responsible for UNHCR’s liaison to the EU institutions from 2004-2013. She has served with the UN in Cyprus, and in Bosnia and Herzegovina, on legal issues related to the rights of displaced people. She has worked as a Researcher at Radboud University, The Netherlands, at the Migration Policy Institute, and at Sciences Po, Paris, France.
We look forward to continued collaboration with Professor McAdam and Dr Garlick in the years ahead.
