What do we do?
Our aim is to advance Science Po alumni interests, and to enhance the relations between our members located in the Washington area.
In close collaboration and partnership with Georgetown University, John Hopkins University, George Washington University, the French Embassy in the US and the Association of the French Staff of the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund and the Inter-American Development Bank, we organize conferences and discussion panels with high-level speakers opened to the public, as well as lunches and social events for members of our association.
We also serve as a bridge between Sciences Po students and multilateral organizations by providing networking opportunities, and we bring Sciences Po closer to its partner universities. Upcoming Events
* February 1st, cultural night at the Kennedy center : Gluck's Armide presented by Opera Lafayette, a world class company that specializes in concert performances of French operas from the 18th century. Past Events
