Conference on World Affairs 2024

CWA 2024 will take place April 10-12 with three full days of panels focused on a variety of topics from business, arts, science, technology, pop culture, international affairs, politics, media, and more!聽

This year we are also focusing on three exciting themes:聽

The Next 100 Years
With this theme, CWA will bring thought leaders, innovators, educators, and professionals from around the world to explore the confluence of technological advances and sociocultural imperatives that will shape the next century. We will encourage a dynamic dialogue on the challenges and prospects facing Gen Z and future generations. We will address the growing impact of Artificial Intelligence on society, with the opportunities, risks, and ethical questions it presents. Our discussions may span from groundbreaking fields like quantum computing to the new horizons of space and aerospace research and impacts on health and culture.

Global Equity

The idea for this theme was born of discussions regarding the ideas of 鈥淓quity鈥 vs 鈥淓quality.In聽addition to a historical perspective, and addressing topics of 鈥渨here to from here,鈥 we will address forward looking concepts such as whether or not developing technologies level the playing field in terms of Global聽Equity.In聽addition to specific attention to issues of the Global South, panels developed under this theme would address issues that affect north and south, such whether the old view is still accurate that the steady advance of democracy will accompany development.Finally, we will include discussions of the importance of systemic change, and the associated challenges in this era of social platforms that encourage quick reactions/quick fixes rather than long-term thinking and solutions.

Leadership

The University of Colorado (CU) believes and invests in the leadership potential of all students.听聽Part of that cultivation incudes learning from leaders of character who meet the needs of humanity in many different ways.听聽In 2024, CWA will provide students, faculty and the community the opportunity to engage with and learn from a diverse set of leaders across the political, business, social, academic, athletic and arts sectors.听聽We believe that everyone can be a leader, and these speakers will provide lessons from their own experiences, examining the characteristics that come together in leadership, the role of failures in successes, what to look for in a team,聽聽who to listen to鈥 or ignore, and what is different about the next generation of leaders.

Whether you are a first-time attendee or a long-time participant, we invite you to join us for聽the 2024聽Conference on World Affairs! For more information or questions please reach out to us via email at聽cwa@colorado.edu.听
