COMPETITION
While there are other institutes of politics and/or policy in the D.C. area, IPPH is distinctive in that it is attached to the only state university in D.C., UDC-- the future home of the D.C. Archives. With that, IPPH will aggressively harvest the history of our nation and its capital to inform its programs.IPPH PROJECTED FUTURE
While IPPH will continue to be associated with UDC, IPPH is to become a stand-alone nonprofit housed at the University. The initial IPPH team will launch an endowment campaign that will generate operating dollars by 2022. IPPH will also raise interim dollars to support IPPH programs.
