The International Bridge Builders Conference invites grassroots leaders from around the world to share their skills, successes, and struggles in international development and community organizing with the Harvard community and beyond. It builds bridges between participants and students, faculty members, development organizations, and the general public. In turn, students and faculty lead skills sessions, provide institutional resources, and pursue ongoing partnerships. The 2005 conference will be February 13-18.

Although only the seven selected bridge builders can participate in conference workshops, many of the events are open to members of the public. A schedule and information about the bridge builders and other speakers are available on this website, or contact us with any questions.
