What Sets Our Conference Apart
01 / Led by Students
What makes the CSD annual conference truly unique is the student-led passion behind it, which showcases not only academic rigour and expert voices, but also a generation of drive and a student body committed to facilitating a discourse that inspires meaningful change. The students organizers center the department's commitment to exploring complexity, giving voice to diverse perspectives, and challenging simplistic narratives.
02 / Expert Panelists

In past years, distinguished speakers included as Catherine Wong, Sanam Naraghi-Anderlini, Professor Erik Berglöf, and, most recently, Andrew Gilmour. Every year, the conference provides a platform for critical engagement and dialogue on some of the most urgent global issues.
