We are delighted to announce this year’s lecture, The Three Lives of Multiculturalism, will be delivered by guest speaker Dr. Will Kymlicka, Canada Research Chair in Political Philosophy at Queen's University, and a visiting professor in the Nationalism Studies program at the Central European University in Budapest. Dr. Kymlicka will be introduced by UBC President, Professor Stephen Toope.

Awarded the Macpherson Prize by the Canadian Political Science Association, the Bunche Award by the American Political Science Association and the Killam Award by Canada Council, International Affairs Magazine puts Dr. Kymlicka "…among the most important and interesting liberal political theorists writing (on multiculturalism) today."

The event will open with music by Delhi 2 Dublin, a five-member ensemble of Canadian
musicians who blend east and west, electronic and acoustic, mainstream and underground. The band fuses the traditional sounds of tabla, dhol, fiddle, and sitar with cutting edge DJ aesthetics, to create a highly charged multi-cultural celebration. Please visit their website for more information (www.delhi2dublin.com/)

Hosted by Paul Kennedy of CBC Radio One, the lecture will also be broadcast across the country on Ideas (690AM Vancouver) on Thursday, June 19 at 9:00 PM.
