| Abstract (English): |
This article will examine the Canadian Bureau for International Education (CBIE). This non-governmental advocacy organization along with the Council of Ministers of Education, Canada (CMEC), and the Association of Universities and Colleges of Canada (AUCC, now Universities Canada) have been responsible for internationalizing higher education (HE) in Canada. It was and remains very significant to international higher education policy. This article will examine the history of the CBIE as it fills this important area of policy making in Canada. It will look critically at the early development of the organization, its fight for financial sustainability as a non-governmental organization (NGO), and lastly, its responses to continuing and emergent issues through to the 2000s. The need for an advocacy organization to fill this niche in Canadian international education policy continues today--what was the CBIE's approach, and is the CBIE now a permanent fixture responsible for internationalizing higher education in Canada?

| Abstract (French): |
Le présent article fait l'examen du Bureau canadien de l'éducation internationale (BCEI). Cette organisation non gouvernementale, en partenariat avec le Conseil des ministres de l'Éducation du Canada (CMEC) et l'Association des universités et collèges du Canada (AUCC -- aujourd'hui Universités Canada), a joué un rôle déterminant dans l'internationalisation de l'enseignement supérieur au Canada, et continue d'exercer un rôle très important en matière de politiques internationales de l'enseignement supérieur. L'article retrace l'histoire du BCEI dans le cadre de son rôle crucial dans l'élaboration des politiques au Canada. Il porte un regard critique sur les débuts de l'organisation, sur sa lutte pour assurer sa viabilité financière en tant qu'organisation non gouvernementale (ONG) et, enfin, sur son action face aux problèmes récurrents et émergents jusque dans les années 2000. La nécessité d'une organisation de défense des intérêts pour combler cet espace dans la politique canadienne en matière d'éducation internationale est toujours d'actualité. Quelle a été l'approche du BCEI? Est-il désormais un acteur permanent chargé de l'internationalisation de l'enseignement supérieur au Canada? [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
