Join @CSSPR_UOL for an in-person conversation with Hannah Haegeland @HHaegeland, Research Fellow, @ManagingtheAtom@BelferCenter@Kennedy_School and Ph.D. candidate at Johns Hopkins University, as she traces the historical and geopolitical roots of the Rooppur Nuclear Power Plant.
📍 University of Lahore | December 15, 2025
Delighted to share that the "Middle Powers project" I helped conceive and have been part of at the @BelferCenter for Science and International Affairs at @Harvard University’s @Kennedy_School has been formally launched.
Thanks to the project team at @BelferCenter, it has developed into a global project that includes in-depth analysis of 13 Middle Powers from across the world and examines their role in the evolving global order. The first 5 studies have been released. Another set, including a study I have authored on Pakistan, will follow early next year.
The project will also produce a book, data dashboards, and a lot more. It’ll become the go-to place for authoritative debates, analyses, and data on Middle Powers.
