Conferences
The Conferences Committee works as a large-scale event planning program and allows student members to gain unique opportunities and insights into the process of organizing and managing events from ideation to execution. Beyond providing students with hands-on experience in balancing a range of responsibilities — including scheduling, publicity, financial management, hospitality, and communications — that can be carried into a broad range of career paths, this committee places undergraduates at the forefront of these planning processes.
This semester, the Conferences Committee will be supporting the IOP's engagement with the Republican National Convention and Democratic National Convention. Additionally, the Conferences Committee will be organizing the Bipartisan Program for Newly Elected Members of Congress where we will invite the entire cohort of new representatives to come to Harvard for training in public service and policy; we will be organizing the Campaign Decision Makers where we invite all the campaign leaders from different campaigns for President in 2024; and finally we will be supporting the Bloomberg Center for Cities Seminar for Newly Elected Mayors.
