Programs

Perry World House aims to advance research and policy impact through four main areas of programming: climate, democracy, global justice and human rights, and security.

Climate

PWH’s climate work focuses on human impacts of climate change, bringing experts to campus to advance discourse and work on climate migration, security, cities, finance, small islands, heat, and health

Democracy

Perry World House’s democracy program harnesses Penn research and expertise to investigate and analyze challenges to democracy around the world.

Global Justice and Human Rights

The Global Justice and Human Rights program explores the questions: How can we resist and reverse the human rights backlash? And how do we build a just and equitable future for generations to come?

Security

The Security program will connect Perry World House and the broader global affairs community on pressing international security issues through public programs, visitors, conferences, and workshops.
