CIS Starr Forum

Principal Investigator Michelle R Nhuch


The Center for International Studies (CIS) Starr Forum is a public event series sponsored by the Starr Foundation of New York. We bring to the MIT campus leading academics, policymakers and journalists to discuss pressing issues in the world of international relations and U.S. foreign policy. Many of our events are webstreamed below. Some of them can also be viewed at MIT World, MIT's on-demand video site. CIS Starr Forums are open to the general public as well as to the MIT community.

An adjunct series, The CIS Starr Forum on the Rise of China, addresses the effect of China's growing economic power and national competitiveness on such global sustainability topics as global resource consumption, greenhouse gas production and climate change, international public health and disease control, and regional military security.
