What is CWA?

For over 75 years, the Conference on World Affairs (CWA) has brought together leaders and experts across different fields to spark lively conversations on today’s top issues. Spanning four days from April 9-12, 2024, CWA will feature over 70 panels that explore three exciting themes. Designed to inform and engage all audiences, CWA is free to attend via livestream or in person at CU Boulder. Registration to attend is now open. We hope to see you there!

University/Community Partnership

University faculty, staff, and students work alongside Boulder community members on the CWA program committee to recruit each year’s CWA speakers and performers and to plan the week's events. Students provide local transportation, serve as ambassadors, and welcome speakers into their classrooms. Gracious Boulder community members open their homes to host our speakers for the week.
