Dinner Series

The SAID dinner series gives students a unique opportunity to discuss matters of international development with both Stanford faculty and Bay Area professionals in a close and informal setting. Speakers discuss their personal work in topics such as education, health care, economics, human rights, the environment, etc., and then answer student questions on any matter related to international development.
