Bruce Carlini has a bachelor’s degree in history and another in political science, and is now commencing studies in international law at McGill University with the avowed goal of helping everyone reach their full potential without having to contend with poverty and injustice. A great number of highly diverse activities bear witness to the social involvement of this admirer of Mohandas Ghandi and Nelson Mandela: at Concordia University, he was both co-president and a member of Amnesty International’s executive committee and the co-director of Action Sida. He also gave of his time to the Montréal branch of Slow Food Québec, which promotes agricultural biodiversity, and to do volunteer work for the Santropol roulant organization, which distributes food aid to the elderly. The founder of STAND Concordia, a student collective devoted to asserting their indignation at the violation of human rights in Darfur, he also writes articles, organizes seminars, gives lectures and hosts forums. Nothing can stop this future advocate of social justice who this year received an award from Concordia University for his exceptional contribution to life on campus.
