We are pleased to announce the winner of the 2022 Marco Lam Prize. In honour of the late Kuan (Marco) Long Lam, the Department established this prize for outstanding blogging in 2019.

Kuan (Marco) Long LamMarco was an outstanding student, who excelled in his coursework and demonstrated a capacity for original research. Marco was not only an excellent student. He was also a vital member of the LSE community, who contributed actively to the life of the School and developed strong bonds of friendship with many of his classmates. Whether it was giving a talk to younger students about his experience working at an NGO, or sharing his thoughts through blogs and social media, Marco’s inspiring contributions were felt by all those who came into contact with him at the School. Marco was in many ways a citizen of the world. He realised that lived experiences were an essential complement to classroom learning and he made the most of opportunities to study abroad, such as the summer he spent in Kathmandu working as an intern at the Centre for Migration and International Relations.

Marco was a keen blogger, and we are happy to be able to commemorate him through this prize. This year, students were asked to write a blog on the theme of What lessons, if any, can we draw from the international response to the COVID-19 pandemic for global governance on climate change?

The prize has been awarded to Anqi Sun (1st year BSc Politics and International Relations).
