HKS

Harvard Kennedy School is one of the University's most international schools, welcoming students from around the globe each year... The center seeks to improve the governance of states, metropolitan areas, and cities through research, teaching, and public events. We support research, particularly for junior faculty in their teaching and their research. We believe this helps them build a strong foundation for motivating students in innovative and inspiring ways. We also hope to nurture faculty interests in broad areas of public policy regarding state and local government and intergovernmental relations. We support a wide range of research interests including urban economics, policies, and development; education policy and governance; civic engagement and social capital; and governmental communications. The center offers a variety of venues for communication and discussion open to students, academics, and the public.
