A home for global engagement on Penn's campus

Applications are now open for the 2023 Perry World House-Foreign Affairs Emerging Scholars Policy Prize. This $10,000 prize encourages scholars to translate their own academic work to be more accessible to policymakers in positions of influence and to advance policy debates on significant issues in global affairs.

Extreme heat is here to stay, and it will change how we live and work. How can we manage this growing global threat? The Perry World House 2023 Global Shifts Colloquium will explore policy solutions to this urgent challenge.

Perry World House's new "Critical Conversations" program creates opportunities for our community to hear opposing, expert points of view about potentially polarizing global policy questions. Join us for our inaugural event on March 29.

Applications for our Undergraduate Essay Prize and first ever Graduate Essay Prize are open now. Learn more about these exciting opportunities for Penn Students to share their research and ideas on major global challenges.
