Stella-Luna Ha

Stella is currently finishing her last year of study at the University of Toronto majoring in Media, Journalism and Digital Cultures, double minoring in Biology and International Development. Stella aspires to become the first person in her family to hold a postsecondary degree and perhaps the first Juris Doctor degree in the near future. Stella’s interest in media security evolves in conjunction with the fascinating growth of social media in the recent years and she believes that the unprecedented challenge for the coming decade in terms of national security and democracy is going to land on the rising unchecked power that social media have on our lives.

Ozan Ayata

Ozan is a fourth-year Global Politics student at Carleton University. He has worked at the Forum of Federations and Sustainable Development Technology Canada. He now works as a research and policy analyst at the Department of National Defence. Ozan's research has also contributed to publishing the Handbook of Federal Countries 2020. His interest in defence and security stems from Canada's role in the Middle East, specifically Canada's interventions and its support for European and Five Eyes allies. Ozan intends to pursue his interests in defence and security by attending graduate school next year.
