British Association for Canadian Studies (BACS)
For information, it is important to understand the difference between The Foundation for Canadian Studies (FCS) and the British Association for Canadian Studies (BACS).
BACS was established in 1975 as a member association of the International Council for Canadian Studies (a non-governmental organisation in Ottawa) to develop teaching, research and publication on Canada in the UK.
FCS was established in 1975 as a grant making entity to support teaching, research and publication on Canada in the UK.
BACS arranges an annual conference on a variety of themes and has a number of specialist groups.
FCS supports and funds academic centres focused on Canadian Studies. In addition, it actively supports and encourages Canadian content across all areas of academia. The FCS has built up an endowment fund earning income for distribution to students, university staff and independent scholars. In addition, FSC actively raises funds to develop new opportunities.
