We are thrilled to announce that this year our Distinguished Excellence in Teaching International Studies Prize was awarded to Felix Roesch and Emilia SH Heo 🎉
Distinguished Excellence in Teaching International
Studies Prize 2026
Felix Roesch and Emilia Heo (University of Sussex and Ritsumeikan
Asia Pacific University)
"Teaching peace and conflict resolution through creative performance and drawing has not come without moments of struggle, sacrifice, and sometimes incomprehension. The BISA award not only reassured me the value of it but also gave me courage to walk on this life journey with students, and of course more widely with IR colleagues."
"Being recognised with the BISA Distinguished Excellence in Teaching International Studies
Prize is very meaningful for me. Teaching was never a chore for me, but a privilege to accompany my students in their learning journeys and see them intellectually grow. I was fortunate that, often in collaboration, I could push the boundaries of International Relations teaching to provide an ever more inclusive and active experience to my students. This Prize encourages me to continue this path."
