Policy Meals

The Africa Caucus provides Harvard students and the Cambridge community with unique opportunities to discuss policy issues on the continent in a informal way around a morning breakfast or a lunch. We either bring high level policy makers, academics and outstanding business and field leaders to share their experience with students as we contribute to the renewal of the reflection on Africa's options for progress or we organize debates among students on current African issues.
