Fueling pathbreaking social science research that delves deep to examine complex global issues / at Harvard since 1958
About us
The Weatherhead Center for International Affairs is the heart of social science research at Harvard University, dedicated to addressing pressing global challenges. As a research accelerator, we assemble a multigenerational and multidisciplinary group of scholars, students, and practitioners to bring their unique perspectives to a wide range of complex topics—including religious conflict, climate change, immigration, and populism. We share our insights via our publications Epicenter and Centerpiece, and at seminars, conferences, and lectureships. The Center also recognizes that rigorous analysis requires long-term investment and is committed to preparing students to become the next generation of scholars who will tackle critical, far-reaching issues impacting our world. More specifically, we fulfill our mission to fuel pathbreaking research in several ways: * We support programs and projects that provide a framework for collaboration on focused research projects * We sponsor conferences, workshops, and seminars where scholars exchange ideas and learn from each other * We host public lectureships and other events on vital issues facing the world today * We award competitive grants and fellowships to global scholars and practitioners * We offer research funding to Harvard faculty and students, including our successful Weatherhead Research Clusters—which represent core faculty interests and push the frontier of knowledge in their respective fields As a dynamic research institution, we foster deep-rooted research, a wide perspective, and long-range vision. Our ultimate goal is a world better understood.

One of the great things about being a Doctoral Student at Harvard University is the opportunity to meet and connect with incredible individuals daily—from premier ministers, and CEOs to professors, classmates, policymakers, and activists. There’s always something happening on campus, and it can be hard to keep up. Today, I had the opportunity to meet Tjada D'Oyen McKenna, CEO of Mercy Corps with fellow Harvard PhD students and learn about the organization’s impactful global work in humanitarian efforts, particularly around food security, conflict, and climate change adaptation. We also discussed ways for researchers and doctoral students to contribute to these efforts. It was refreshing to see a humanitarian organization so committed to research, constantly improving its programs and assessing their impact. Thank you to Julio Solis Arce, and the Weatherhead Center for International Affairs at Harvard University for organizing this gathering.
