Events

Whether in-person, virtual, or hybrid, IGPA’s events are a core component of our commitment to public engagement that sparks smart policy.   

About

IGPA fosters conversation on the most important issues facing the state and nation today, working in collaboration with scholars and policymakers. Together with our partners, we provide regular events such as forums and lectures as well as annual leadership training programs and learning opportunities.
