HLP Supports Eight-Campus N.C. Youth Voting Initiative
Across the nation, young people between the ages of 18 and 24 are the least likely to vote. At Duke, the Hart Leadership Program at the Sanford School of Public Policy is aiming to change that.
PEP is a leadership initiative for Duke undergraduates interested in political engagement and includes coursework, support for summer internships, and mentoring.
To be eligible for the Political Engagement Project, students must be current juniors. The application for PEP 2023 is now closed. The PEP 2024 application will open in fall 2023, but you can watch the 2023 info session above for more information. If you have questions, please contact Thalia Halloran (thalia.halloran@duke.edu).

This semester's Connect2Politics events tackled a variety of topics related to political leadership and community-engaged work, including local government innovation, journalism, and data analysis.
The Hart Leadership Program and the Center for Political Leadership Innovation and Service (POLIS) are excited to launch a new undergraduate fellowship program focused on political engagement.
Connect2Politics promotes student engagement with critical political issues and actors by hosting intimate gatherings with political practitioners of all types and stripes.
