JOSEF KORBEL SCHOOL OF GLOBAL & PUBLIC AFFAIRS

The world is changing quickly — rising geopolitical tensions, climate disruption, technological transformation, and growing political polarization.

At the Korbel School of Global and Public Affairs, our mission is to help society understand and navigate this moment.

Korbel faculty and students are tackling these challenges from Colorado to the global stage. Our work helps inform public policy conversations in our state, prepare future leaders, and bring communities together to engage thoughtfully with complex issues. This includes work such as mapping future global risks, advancing women’s leadership worldwide, and analyzing emerging geopolitical dynamics.

Just as importantly, Korbel creates space for dialogue — bringing students, experts, policymakers, and the public together to engage seriously with the most pressing issues of our time.

Your gift today supports our highest priorities for the future including:  

Korbel Fund: The Korbel Fund supports expert speakers and public conversations that connect our community with Korbel’s network of faculty, alumni, and global leaders. These events create opportunities for students, alumni, and the broader community to engage directly with timely global and public policy issues while positioning Korbel experts to help lead these important public conversations.

Korbel Scholarship Fund: Scholarships ensure that talented students from around the world can access a Korbel education and prepare for careers in diplomacy, public policy, international development, national security, and global business. Your support helps prepare the next generation of leaders.

On 1DAY4DU, your gift supports the ideas, dialogue, and leaders shaping our shared future.
