For the 2008–2009 academic year, Hope is leading the Women in Science and International Affairs (WSIA) group of the Belfer Center, which provides a forum for women at the Belfer Center to interact with each other and to discuss issues that are meaningful to their research and career goals. WSIA brings dynamic and accomplished women to speak at the Kennedy School of Government and intends to continue facilitating the process of connecting the women who work within the Belfer Center and catalyzing discussions among members of this community about particular issues of interest.
All at the Belfer Center are welcome in WSIA, including faculty, staff, and fellows.
