About Me   About Me
Antoine Huss is a global citizen by nature. Born and raised in the Middle East from French parents, he was bound to travel and explore the cultures of this world, including his own.

He obtained a joint Master’s degree in Anthropology (2002) from the Université March Bloch in France and Concordia University in Canada, after conducting field researches in Mali and Montreal. His thesis focused on the transformation of cultural identities throughout migration processes, and naturally led him to work as a researcher and social worker for immigrant and refugee-serving organizations, including the Canadian Council for Refugees (CCR) in Montreal.

After moving to Ottawa in 2004, Antoine started working at the national and international levels as a Public Education and Community Outreach consultant for development institutions like the United Nations Association in Canada (UNA-Canada), the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO).

In January of 2007, Antoine started working as a policy analyst for the Multiculturalism Policy and Human Rights Directorate at Canadian Heritage, with a particular focus on religious diversity, shared citizenship and second generation youth.

Antoine has also incorporated his own translation company, Trans-Atlantic Translations Inc., and is a registered translator for development organizations like CARE Canada, Right to Play, the Parliamentary Center and TakingITGlobal, as well as a certified French Oral Interaction Assessor for the Public Service Commission of Canada.

On a voluntary basis, Antoine is also contributing his expertise and passion for peace and community development with organizations like the Canadian Commission for UNESCO (CCU), the Society for International Development (SID), the National Youth Anti-Racism Network (NYAN), TakingITGLobal, the Millennium Scholarship Foundation and the CIDA Youth Speakers Bureau.
