Curious about global development, humanitarian policy, or how data-driven policymaking can shape equitable growth around the world? Join us for the International Development Policy Association (IDPA) Interest Meeting to learn how you can get involved this year.

IDPA is a student-led organization that connects Harris students interested in international development, global governance, and policy solutions to global challenges such as climate resilience, economic development, education, and health equity.

At this meeting, we will:

- Introduce the mission and goals of IDPA
- Share upcoming events, speaker series, and networking opportunities
- Discuss leadership and collaboration opportunities for the 2025 academic year
- Hear your ideas for what international development at Harris should look like

Whether you are a first-year student exploring new policy areas or a returning student ready to take on a leadership role, this is your chance to shape IDPA’s agenda for the year ahead.
