Global Speaker Series
FEATURED EVENT
SNS-DCID Fireside Chat
Over 100 young leaders attended our hybrid fireside chat at Duke University, hosted by South-North Scholars and the Duke Center for International Development, for a captivating Q&A session with the Director of the United Nations Human Development Report Office, Dr. Pedro Conceição, in conversation with Dr. Anirudh Krishna, Edgar Thompson Distinguished Professor of Public Policy.
Insights to transform our knowledge and careers.
Most conversations about global issues don’t consider the questions or perspectives of students. South-North Scholars is changing that.
We engage leading scholars, executives, activists, scientists, and founders in conversations focused on unconventional insights and actionable steps to help you reimagine your learning and career path.
This is important: Our invited speakers represent just their personal views, not their organization’s position. In sharing their insights, they’ll certainly draw on their education and careers across leading institutions.
