Congratulations to UBC Political Science PhD student Kim Beaulieu, who has been awarded a Fox International Fellowship at Yale University!
Kim Beaulieu
Kim will soon move to New Haven to begin her position as a Visiting Assistant in Research at the Whitney and Betty MacMillan Center for International and Area Studies at Yale.
Kim’s research focuses on the relationship between the United Nations and host countries during state-building processes. Her dissertation investigates why and how host state consent evolves throughout a peace operation and seeks to theorize the factors that shape these shifts.
Kim previously interned at the United Nations with the Justice and Corrections Service within the Department of Peace Operations in 2024. From June to August 2025, she will be a visiting researcher at the University of Osaka’s School of International Public Policy (OSIPP) as part of a pre-doctoral fellowship funded by the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) and Mitacs.
Before joining UBC, Kim received an MA and a BA from the University of Montreal, where she conducted research on feminist foreign policies. Her work on this topic will soon be published in the Canadian Journal of Political Science.
