Join us for the upcoming World Congress in Mexico City!

May 20-23, 2025

The IAPSS World Congress is the largest annual event hosted by IAPSS – the International Association for Political Science Students. As a flagship event with hundreds of students participating each year, it serves as a platform to present and discuss research with fellow students from the political science discipline. During the conference, the participants will be involved in a broad range of different activities: attending student-run panels, academic lectures, and study tours. This year’s World Congress will be the first World Congress in Latin America and the Global South. The event will be held under the theme Advocacy in a Fragmented World: Power, Voice, and Transformation.
