The Development Society is one of the newest and most vibrant student societies at the London School of Economics, organizing forums for discussion, speaker panels, fundraisers, movie screenings, Development Week, and more, all centered around raising awareness and stimulating dialogue between students and with experts on issues facing countries in the developing world. This year, we hope to cultivate a more nuanced understanding of issues–such as microfinance, the private sector in the developing world, media and development, careers in development, and education, to name a few–through dynamic, engaging events for our members and the LSE community. We will also hold multiple fundraisers and are planning a service trip to Asia.
We are open to suggestions and input from our members in order to create events centered around issues that you are passionate about. Please send us an email listing development-related issues that interest you, countries you have worked with or are intrigued by, past involvement in development, ideas for events, and CVs to developmentLSE@gmail.com so that we can…
- form discussions and forums based on your interests
- guide the focus of our future speaker events
- create a members database so you can interact based on shared interest in development-related issues

We look forward to seeing you at our events and to receiving your input!
