About Us

Catalyst is an undergraduate student-run online platform that publishes written and creative work relating to the field of International Development Studies. Created in 2019, Catalyst operates under the portfolio of the VP Publications of the McGill IDSSA. Find more about our Mission and Values here.

Land Acknowledgement

McGill University, and the International Development Studies Students’ Association (IDSSA), is founded upon the unceded traditional territories of Indigenous peoples, namely the Haudenosaunee Confederacy  who are also known as the Guardians of the Eastern Door, and Anishinabeg Nations. It is important to keep this constantly in our minds, so that we can move forward actively resisting neocolonialism in all of its forms and manifestations.
