Guernsey student Madelaine Russell was the 2024 beneficiary of a prestigious bursary which has transported her to the other side of the world and changed her horizons. Each year, just one sixth form student from the Bailiwick is eligible for a fully funded place at Brock University in Ontario as part of the historic links between Canada and Guernsey.

In this ODPA podcast, the political science student sits down for a conversation with Bailiwick Data Protection Commissioner Brent Homan – who just so happens to hail from Canada. They discuss life in a cold climate, how her interest in public outreach and human rights led to her becoming the first successful applicant of the ODPA’s new intern programme and their common love of sports.

This podcast is part of the Office of the Data Protection Authority’s social initiative which aims to harness the power of shared experiences and stories to encourage ethical data use and engage people on a cultural level.
