- Wisam Kh. Abdul-Jabbar holds a Ph.D. (funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada) from the University of Alberta, where he was awarded the Bacchus Graduate Research Prize for scholarly excellence in International and Multicultural Education. He also received the University of Alberta President's Doctoral Prize of Distinction, among other awards such as the JDH McFetridge Graduate Scholarship and the Andrew Stewart Memorial Graduate Prize, for outstanding accomplishment and potential in pursuit of new knowledge. Dr. Abdul-Jabbar held a postdoctoral fellowship (also funded by the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada) at the University of Calgary. His research considers how intercultural communication resonates with educational practices and explores convergences of seemingly differing cultures with the aim of infusing intercultural dialogue into educational discourse. He is currently a visiting professor teaching graduate courses in the Intercultural Communication program at HBKU in Qatar. He is also a faculty member in the Adult Education Master's Degree program at Yorkville University, Canada. Prior to that, he was an adjunct professor at the University of Alberta, Canada.
