SIAMO NOI.png

Ciao!

Je suis Michele Baiocco, candidat au doctorat en psychologie.

La culture italienne, ainsi que ses valeurs associées ont teinté mon parcours personnel, académique et professionnel, et ont influencé la personne que je suis, notamment l’importance que j’accorde à la famille et mon souci pour le bien-être des autres.

En tant que canadien de deuxième génération et étudiant universitaire de première génération, je tiens à remercier la CIBPA pour son précieux soutien au cours de mes études universitaires.

Je voudrais également remercier mon père, Vincenzo, de m’avoir notamment montré à faire preuve de persévérance face à l’adversité. Dai forza! Comme il dirait!

I am a Ph.D. candidate in Educational studies at McGill University.

My research focuses on science and mathematics teachers’ inclusive practices for students with learning disabilities.

I am proud of my Italian heritage and I believe it has shaped me into the person I am today.

I want to thank the CIBPA foundation for their support and positive impact on my educational journey.

Je m'appelle Béatrice Ferri et je suis étudiante en première année de doctorat en médecine ainsi qu'à la maîtrise de recherche en pharmacologie à l'Université de Montréal.

Guidée par un profond désir de redonner à ma communauté et de contribuer à son bien-être, j'ai choisi cette voie avec passion.

Fière de mon héritage italo-canadien, la fondation CIBPA occupe une place précieuse dans mon parcours, me permettant de rester connectée à mes racines italiennes, tout en bénéficiant d'un soutien essentiel pour concrétiser mes ambitions académiques et professionnelles.

Buongiorno! Grateful to be a 2024 CIBPA Bursary recipient!

This foundation has been a game-changer, helping me stay focused on my studies while keeping my coffee addiction fully funded. Just kidding.

Truthfully, this foundation has not only supported my academic journey but has also inspired me to give back to the community in meaningful ways.

The opportunities and connections I've gained through CIBPA have made a profound impact on my personal and professional growth as a nurse.

The support has been amazing, and I'm excited to see where this journey takes me.

Education is important, but so is a good laugh along the way!"

The CIBPA Foundation is more than just financial support—it represents a deep connection to my Italian roots and an encouragement to continue my academic and community engagement.

Being connected to CIBPA is also a source of inspiration, as it showcases a community that, through mutual support and perseverance, has helped make Canada a great place to live.

As a pastor and researcher in law and theology, my goal is to build bridges between communities and foster meaningful and dynamic dialogue.

This scholarship allows me to deepen these reflections and continue actively contributing to society. At the same time, the CIBPA network encourages me, knowing that a larger community—one to which I am connected—also believes in the power of dialogue and bridge-building.

Ciao! Sono Anabel!

I am currently in my final year of my bachelor's degree in Human Resource Management at ESG UQAM, and I plan to continue onto a master’s degree in the same field.

I am extremely grateful to the CIBPA Foundation for the meritorious bursary I was awarded, allowing me to continue pursuing my academic goals.

Je suis très fière de faire partie de la communauté italo-canadienne et de pouvoir incarner les valeurs de mon héritage.

Grazie di cuore ai donatori generosi che rendono possibile questa opportunità!

My name is Catherine Victoria Prattico. I was born and raised in Montreal and I am of Casertan, Pugliese, and Sicilian origin.

My research looks at how dietary fibre, particularly from chicory root, is broken down by the bacteria in our gut, and how it impacts health, including how it can be used to improve cancer treatment outcomes.

It is only fitting that my project focuses on “la chicoria”, a food my nonni, like many Italians, have been valued for generations. I am incredibly grateful for this wisdom, which was passed down to me, along with the sacrifices my family has made for my studies.

Growing up around the generosity of the Italian community inspired me to pursue a career like medical research which can directly benefit others.

I am thankful for the financial support and guidance of the CIBPA foundation and to soon provide the
same opportunities to future students. Grazie mille!

I am a current MSc student in School and Applied Child Psychology at the University of Calgary.

I completed my BA in Psychology at McGill University in 2022. My current thesis project will examine the impact of trauma and occupational stress on spouse mental health and family functioning.

The CIPBA bursary has allowed me to prioritize my studies and supported my goal of becoming a child psychologist.

My Italian family and background have always been a significant pillar in my life and personal identity. I hope to continue my involvement within this vibrant community.

My name is Julia Tesolin, and I am pursuing a doctoral degree in Human Development at McGill University.

My research focuses on promoting adolescents' mental health and well-being through Social-Emotional Learning (SEL), with a particular emphasis on gender role socialization and its impact on youth development.

As a first-generation graduate student, I am deeply grateful for the support of the CIBPA Foundation, which plays a vital role in fostering the success of young Canadian-Italian scholars. Their commitment to education and community is inspiring, allowing students like myself to stay connected to our heritage while making meaningful contributions to society.

"Education is a powerful tool for change, and I hope my work helps create a more inclusive and accepting world for future generations."
