OUR PARTNERS

Thanks to the generous support of our partners, PSIA is pleased to offer these opportunities to our students. Since 2012, PSIA partners with CASDEN to develop a platform for social innovation that offers courses for its students to learn about social innovation and gain professional skills. The prize for best paper is the latest initiative under this partnership. In 2017, Sciences Po launched a partnership with Institut du Bosphore, based at PSIA, to encourage opportunities to study and to foster debate about French-Turkish relationships. The prize for best paper is one of its main pillars and it has already distinguished 9 Sciences Po students for the quality of their research.
