IRPP Fall Lecture: Analysis of the U.S. Presidential Election

Join us for an evening of dialogue and networking with Canada’s dynamic public policy community as we digest the results of the U.S. Presidential election.

This year’s fall IRPP event will feature a keynote lecture by award-winning American author and political scientist Hahrie Han, an expert in political organizing and social movements. Han is the inaugural director of Johns Hopkins University’s Stavros Niarchos Foundation Agora Institute, a multidisciplinary academic and public forum dedicated to strengthening global democracy. Han is also the Stavros Niarchos Foundation professor of political science and faculty director of the P3 Research Lab at the university. Her fifth book, Undivided: The Quest for Racial Solidarity in an American Church, will be published in September 2024.

The lecture will be followed by a lively cocktail reception that will bring together Parliamentarians, members of the public service, academics, and those from the nonprofit and private sectors.

Funds raised this year will go toward supporting a junior research associateship at the IRPP, as we cultivate the next generation of public policy thinkers. Junior researchers receive hands-on experience and mentorship in the production of rigorous, in-depth research on Canada’s toughest policy challenges.
