2024–25 Carnegie Distinguished Fellows

IGP’s second cohort of Carnegie Distinguished Fellows visited SIPA throughout the 2024–2025 academic year, collaborating with faculty from across Columbia University to inform and advance IGP policy work, participating in events ranging from major public convenings to closed-door discussions, and engaging meaningfully with students.

This cohort of Carnegie Distinguished Fellows included a diverse mix of high-profile practitioners from across the globe representing a range of sectors: former high-ranking policy officials, diplomats, a world-renowned journalist, a ground-breaking activist, industry-defining entrepreneurs and experts, and more. IGP is honored and delighted to welcome them to SIPA this academic year.
