Weatherhead Spotlight, featuring the CII Cluster

The Weatherhead Spotlight showcases the research and debates of the various units and affiliates of the Weatherhead Center for International Affairs.

The goal of the Spotlight each year is to tease out the robust discussions happening within each respective group and invite the Weatherhead community to engage with the ongoing conversations.

All Weatherhead affiliates are invited to attend! Lunch will be available starting at 12:00 noon; we will start promptly at 12:15 p.m. and end at 1:15 p.m. sharp. We will meet in the Bowie-Vernon Room (CGIS K262). The Spotlight is chaired by the Center’s director.
